During last week's dedicated time to expand Pleaides, the system attained a sustained performance rate of 1.09 petaflop/s on the LINPACK benchmark run. With this achievement, Pleiades climbed to 7th place on the TOP500 list released earlier today.
During the benchmark run, Pleiades delivered nearly 83% of the theoretical peak of 1.32 petaflops—which translates to very efficient use of your time on the system.
Pleiades overall configuration now includes:
- 11,648 nodes
- 111,104 cores
- 185 terabytes total memory
