T5440 World RecordjAppServer Single Application Server From BM Seer – Unofficial thoughts from an anonymous Sun employee
One Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server with four UltraSPARC T2 Plus processors at 1.4GHz, delivered a single system World Record result of 6334.86 SPECjAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard. The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 consumed an average of 1578 Watts of power to obtain this result for a power-performance rating of 0.25 Watts/JOP. The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server (four 1.4 GHz UltraSPARC T2 Plus chips) demonstrated 32% better performance over the HP DL580 G5 result of 4410.07 SPECjAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard, which used four 2.66 GHz Intel 6-core Xeon processors. The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server (four 1.4 GHz UltraSPARC T2 Plus chips) demonstrated 75% better performance over the HP DL580 G5 result of 3339.94 SPECjAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard, which used four 2.93 GHz Intel 4-core Xeon processors. This benchmark used the Oracle WebLogic 10.3 Application Server and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition. This benchmark result proves that the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server using the UltraSPARC T2 Plus processor performs as an outstanding J2EE application server as well as an Oracle 11g OLTP database server. This result used a Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server (four 1.4 GHz UltraSPARC T2 Plus chips) in the database tier to obtain this World Record result. This Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 consumed an average of 1463 Watts of power to obtain this result for a power-performance rating of 0.23 Watts/JOP. These results were obtained using Sun Java SE 6 Update 6 Performance Release on the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server and running the Solaris 10 10/08 Operating Environment. The power-performance metric is a measure of server efficiency ratio that includes system power & performance consumption on a specific benchmark. (Power-performance = Watts / Performance). Sun publishes watts on this SPEC benchmark, and asks why won't HP on the 6-core systems with this size memory? Performance Landscape
SPECjAppServer2004 Performance Chart as of 10/13/2008. Complete benchmark results may be found at the SPEC benchmark website http://www.spec.org. SPECjAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard (bigger is better) Benchmark Description SPECjAppServer2004 (Java Application Server) is a multi-tier benchmark for measuring the performance of Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) technology-based application servers. SPECjAppServer2004 is an end-to-end application which exercises all major J2EE technologies implemented by compliant application servers as follows:
Moreover, SPECjAppServer2004 also heavily exercises all parts of the underlying infrastructure that make up the application environment, including hardware, JVM software, database software, JDBC drivers, and the system network. The primary metric of the SPECjAppServer2004 benchmark is jAppServer Operations Per Second (JOPS) which is calculated by adding the metrics of the Dealership Management Application in the Dealer Domain and the Manufacturing Application in the Manufacturing Domain. There is NO price/performance metric in this benchmark. About Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server Breakthrough performance, eco efficiency, and cost effectiveness of Sun's proven, open source, chip multithreading (CMT) architecture, along with the scalability and reliability of a traditional midrange system. The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server provides up to 4x higher performance, up to 4x higher performance per watt, and costs as little as one-fifth of competitive servers. More Information
