Actually it runs SuSE. We paint go-faster stripes on the side with<br>our SCore parallel environment. Standard MPI libraries, but a low<br>latency gigabit layer. You need low latency to get the parallel<br>performance to acceptable levels.

Congratulations, but I for one would not trust linpack nor <a href="http://top500.org">top500.org</a>,
We are in the top100 for some time, but the reported
figures were submitted by the vendors, and they do not really
represent the production environment, they were better tuned for top500
than the real applications which could behave completely different<br>
