Does anybody know why exactly MDGRAPE-3 is incapable of running LINPACK? What kind of software is this system running on? dreddnott 22:06, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Well it would be able to run, but couldn't use the power of the special CPUs, so it would be extremly slow. This is because the special CPUs can only compute particle interactions. LINPACK is linear algebra.--Rolandschulz 17:55, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
