Customer Endorsements
"We have since extended that work to the UltraSPARC T2 Plus server based Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 servers, taking advantage of the multi-socket architecture to scale performance and throughput. We have seen great results scaling from 64 threads in the UltraSPARC T2 servers to 128 threads in the UltraSPARC T2 Plus servers for our plasma physics and PDE codes, and from our sparse iterative kernel. In addition, this scaling came at no cost to productivity. In fact, we were able to scale without even recompiling the code. For our applications, CMT technology is by far the most productive solution to achieving high performance." - Samuel Webb Williams, PhD candidate, Computer Science Division, University of California, Berkeley
