"Do you know if rumorware "H1" will be foregone for the
R12k and development be concentrated on "H2"?"

The rumour I've most recently heard (and let me stress
this is a rumour) is:

- the R12K is basically a clocked up R10k with a few
microarchitecture changes. If true, this puts SPECint95
figures around 12-15. DEC's 21264 is intended to ship
with SPECint95 figures around 40, in the same time frame.
So for SGI's sake, I hope this rumour isn't true.
- The H1 development has been stopped because its projected
performance was not adequate for the time in which it was
intended to be shipped
- H2 will ship no earlier than 1999.
