ScaleMP ranked among world's fastest in new SPEC benchmarks
vSMP Foundation Delivers Top 5 Performance, Representing More Than 10x Improvement Over Best Results Available for x86 Shared Memory Systems
ScaleMP today announced record-breaking benchmarking results for x86 systems using the company’s vSMP Foundation software. vSMP Foundation claimed top five results for two Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) benchmarks, representing more than a 10x improvement over the best results available for x86 shared memory systems.
ScaleMP benchmarking experts used 16 dual-socket systems, aggregated into a single virtual shared-memory system to achieve the record-breaking results for two SPEC benchmarks for computer systems: SPECint_rate_base2006 which achieved 3150, and SPECfp_rate_base2006 which achieved 2550, receiving top 5 status for both benchmarks and solidifying ScaleMP’s leadership in powering high-end x86 systems. The official results can be viewed on SPEC.org web site (http://www.spec.org/).
"vSMP Foundation continues to lead the industry in terms of the performance and savings it offers to high-end virtual environments," said Shai Fultheim, founder and CEO of ScaleMP. "vSMP Foundation outperformed other x86 shared memory systems by an order of magnitude, demonstrating the power of a single virtual system by aggregating multiple, industry-standard x86 systems."
