Are there any performance figures on ALL-IN-1 IOS V3.0?
I'm specifically looking for performance on a VAX 6000 Model 640.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Carol,
Note 142 contains the ISA Performance and Configuration Guide.

For the general reading audience, I'll outline what I told Carol during our phone conversation today. We never tested the VAX 6000-640. The main reason was that the SMP scaling from 1 processor to 2 was not great (for ALL-IN-1). This is primarily due to the latency to main memory, and the way the CPU processor caches are managed in an SMP configuration. The general opinion was that the price/performance of more than two processors was not worth the effort to characterize the performance of such systems. The VAX 7000 shows better SMP scaling, and we intend to characterize the performance of VAX 7000-640 at some point in the future. Regards, Marc | |||||
