4-Way Sun Fire V40z Reviewed

Posted by samzenpus on from the compile-faster dept.

Hack Jandy writes "Anandtech has a pretty thorough analysis of Sun's V40z 4-way Opteron server that fits in a 3U. Among some of the more noteable benchmarks include a 2 minute, 30 second Linux 2.6.4 kernel compile! Who would have thought only a few years ago that Sun would be the new champion of Linux and AMD?"

    Not that that is a bad thing, but I cannot see any difference between the V40z and this.
