SUN 4/330

MFLOPS
2.6 double-precision LINPACK
SPECmarks
15.6 with KAI
MEMORY
the INITIAL max was 40MB using 1 MB Simms and 2 16MB 3u cards
this was done with 8MB on the CPU & 2 16MB 3u cards
LATER the max went to 72MB
this was done with 8MB on the CPU & 1 64MB (4MB SIMMS) 3u card
only ONE 64MB 3u could be used because of the SIMM height
There is a limit of using 1MB SIMMS ONLY on the 330 CPU
FINALLY you could get 96MB on a 4/330
you could order a 32MB CPU card from upgrades
and with a 64MB card get up to 96MB on a 4/330
BUT this was only through upgrades
