Today we host an interview with Christophe de Dinechin, Software Architect in HP-UX (Software business unit, Infrastructure Solutions). Most of you already know HP-UX, the leading "traditional" UNIX today feature-wise (second only to Solaris in Unix market-share, mostly competing with AIX). With Christophe we discuss HP-UX's competition, the other... 5 OSes HP supports with its various products, the Itanium platform and more.

For example, a database running TPC-C on a NUMA cluster of 32 two-way systems would kick in the teeth of a real 64 processor box, ceteris paribus. That stack of dual processor systems is certainly cheaper, too. But the 64-way system would crush the cluster on anything that couldn't be partitioned the way TPC-C can. "
It was one non-clustered result: http://news.com.com/2100-1010_3-1013764.html?tag=fd_top
