Re: Itanium 2 can calculate Pi faster than any processor on Earth

Yep, that's about 30% faster than the best scores (and those were overclocked, while Itanium isn't) seen from P4 or Athlon.

Now, can Itanium index a production database? Return a complex query in a production database? How is it with the 98% of all code out there that was developed in-house, by in-house developers for business critical in-house applications?
