   All,



   Anyone seem Stream numbers for one and/or more cores from SiCortx, say
   a SiCortex

   Catapult System.  The chip has two memory controllers, and I have
   heard provides:



   "more than 10 Terabytesof bandwidth"



   in the largest configuration, but have not seen any measured memory
   bandwidth numbers

   for this box.  Come to think of it,  I have not seen measured number
   for its interconnect

   performance either. Sustaining a reasonable ratio bytes delivered from
   memory to flops

   should be easier on this processor with its lower clock, but is does
   have 2 cores.  I am

   interested in how looks compared to Opteron, etc. It is supposed to
   be a balanced

   design, but it seems there are few measured results available to
   validate this.



   As always your thoughts are appreciated ...



   Regards,



   rbw
