Windsock Re..In this benchmark, the Itanium 2 900Mhz processor scores 625, while the 1GHz Itanium 2 scores 751. A 1.26GHz Pentium III scores 175. It appears that Itanium and Itanium 2 do very well with SSL transactions. In fact, the architecture was built for it. I can't verify the results from the Inquirer, but my guess is that they were done with some limiter on the performance of the machine. Maybe 32-bit mode??<<< Nice try Bee, however all of those benchmarks you people are bragging about was set on a HP system running HP's propietary's software. http://www.zeus.com/library/technical/hp_bench.pdf page 8 shows the unit was running HP-UX operating system v1120-ic29; not Linux. The only box in the test running Linux is the PIII. Perhaps you didn't understand the question. Running Linux, how good is Itanics SSL benches. All of this wk. Linux was in the news, as it seems to be taking off in enterprise. If Itanic doesn't do well in the OS dubbed the next big thing, then what kind of future does Itanic have.
