Itanium Clusters:

tech-report.com

"The Itanium cluster is comprised of two-processor boxes. There are some four-processor boxes there, too. The processors are 733 and 800MHz Itaniums. The Itanium cluster will also be a one teraflop cluster shortly.
On Atlas , the Itanium achieves 3-4 instructions per clock (IPC), but that's simple code, not unpredictable code with lots of conditional branches. Still, it's impressive. As compilers improve, the Itanium's performance on in certain areas could potentially double, especially when using SSE2, so long as they work out the kinks.

Oh, it can't possibly be, since all I've heard from Driods is that Itanium is DOA.....
