MySQL 4.0.20d
MySQL has been a staple of our Linux tests since its inception. Even though it does not carry high relevance for a workstation test, we still regard it as the de facto free, open sourced benchmark for Linux. Below, you can see our results for sysbench on both the 64-bit RedHat 2.4 kernel. Below, we ran the sysbench 0.3.1 oltp tests for 1,000,000 and 10,000,000 record sized table.

That thing is a monster! I can't even think of something to do with that much power... It would be wasted on anything I throw at it, that's for sure. Good thing I don't have 22,000 to throw away...Viditor - Tuesday, February 22, 2005 - link
Wow...what a machine! I'd read the pathscale record setting previously, but it looks like HP has a real headache here...(Dell isn't even in the game...)Doormat - Tuesday, February 22, 2005 - link
Yea the benchmarks are missing. I'd also like to see some reviews of "cheaper" (by an order of magnitude or so) 1U/2U 1/2-way systems. It'll be interesting to see what happens when dual core goes live later this year. I'd love to get some 1U 2-way servers and stick dual core chips in them. 4 procs in a 1U housing. Yeah.

#3: On the contrary. PPC runs embedded all the time.mickyb - Tuesday, February 22, 2005 - link
They don't work for me either. On another note, the PowerPC management board is interesting. I am familiar with the HP Integritry Management Board. I don't think it runs Linux. I wonder if AMD would be interested in making a management board based on the Geode processor. PowerPC seems a bit much.vaystrem - Tuesday, February 22, 2005 - link
Are the database benchmark images not working for anyone else?LeadFrog - Tuesday, February 22, 2005 - link
That is a beast.
