Theoretical peak

Theoretical combined computational rate of all the processors used by the benchmark expressed in Tflop/s (trillion floating-point operations per second or 10e12 flop/s). Typically, it is a product of the number of floating-point operations per cycle, clock frequency, and the number of processors. For the multi-core chips, a common practice is to refer to a single core as processor. So the theoretical peak should be multiplied by the number of cores. The table below gives the number of floating-point operations per cycle for common processors: Processor Floating-point operations per cycle AMD Athlon 2 AMD Athlon XP 2 AMD Athlon MP 2 AMD Opetron 2 Alpha 21164 2 Alpha 21264 2 Alpha 21264 A 2 Alpha 21264 B 2 Alpha 21264 C 2 Alpha 21364 2 Alpha 21464 2 Cray X1 MSP 16 Cray X1E 16 Cray X2 16 Fujitsu SPARC64 V 2 Fujitsu SPARC64 V+ 2 Fujitsu SPARC64 VI 2 G5 (IBM PowerPC 970) 4 G5 (IBM PowerPC 970FX) 4 HP PA-8500 4 HP PA-8600 4 HP PA-8700 4 HP PA-8800 4 HP PA-8900 4 IBM POWER3 4 IBM POWER4 4 IBM POWER4+ 4 IBM POWER5 4 IBM POWER5+ 4 IBM POWER6 4 IBM PowerPC 440 4 Intel Itanium 4 Intel Itanium 2 4 Intel Pentium III 1 Intel Pentium 4 2 Intel Pentium 4 Celeron 2 Intel Core 2 4 Intel Core 2 Duo 4 Intel Core 2 Quad 4 Intel Xeon 2 Intel Xeon EM64T 2 Intel Xeon MP 2 NEC SX-4 16 NEC SX-5 16 NEC SX-6 16 NEC SX-7 16 NEC SX-8 8 PowerPC 601 2 PowerPC 603 2 PowerPC 604 2 PowerPC 604e 2 SGI MIPS 4000 2 SGI MIPS 5000 2 SGI MIPS 8000 2 SGI MIPS 10000 2 SGI MIPS 12000 2 SGI MIPS 14000 2 SGI MIPS 16000 2 SGI MIPS 18000 2 Sun UltraSPARC I 2 Sun UltraSPARC II 2 Sun UltraSPARC III 2 Sun UltraSPARC IV 2 Sun UltraSPARC IV+ 2 Sun UltraSPARC V 2 Sun UltraSPARC T1 (Niagra) 2 Sun Rock 2
