Red Star Linux Takes #1 Spot

[VinDSL]

America no longer has the world's fastest supercomputer... :\

SOURCE: China has the top supercomputer in the world, but it still runs Linux

For the record, it performs 2.5 times 10 to the 15th power mathematical operations per second.

No boot times given... 😀

I think I'm going to switch to an Opteron (on my desktop) on the next build.

We're running dual Opterons 242s on our production web server, and that thing flies!

Over 80% of the world's fastest computers run Linux (SOURCE | CHART).

THE world's fastest computer runs 37376 hex-core Opteron 2435s via Linux (SOURCE).

Guess I'll go with dual Intel Xeon E5520 Nehalems and 46GB RAM...

Mobo: Asus Z8PE-D12

Why not go 32-core 512GB RAM instead? You'll get much more performance out of it!!! :twisted:

I'd like to install everything in a ram disk, just to see how fast things load :^)

You can buy it mounted in a breadbox chassis too! :thumbsup:

Wow, chinese Linux! I checked out their site. Here's a quote: "Red Flag Linux Desktop 6.0 is a new international Linux OS which will give you an exciting feeling."

HAH. Too bad the download link is broken. Is it available for the general public?
