Achieving 1 PF vs Bodega Bay Applications
Achieving 1 PF vs Bodega Bay Applications
- 10 TB Primary Memory supports almost all apps whose run time is under 1 day + over half of those that run > 1 day.
- For 2007 conventional machine, using 2004 technology and a mere 10 TB primary memory
- Approx. 20,000 DRAM chips @ $10M chip cost
- AT LEAST 160,000 of state of art microprocessors
- Problem: 1 memory chip/8 uPs fails bandwidth test!!!
- At $1,000 per uP (cache, cooling, ...), this is approx
- $200M machine
- 1M sq. cm. of silicon
