An SGI® Altix® 4700 platform, powered by the Intel® Itanium® Processor 9040 (1.6GHz), set three SPEC benchmark world records at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) in Germany. SGI used a single-system image (SSI) node with 1024 Itanium cores, 4TB of memory and Novell’s SuSE Linux® Enterprise 10 operating environment to achieve record-breaking results on SPECjbb2005, SPECint_rate_base2006 and SPECfp_rate_base2006 benchmarks.
