Not as fast as the 35 Teraflops supercomputer recently made operational in
Japan, http://www.talkchess.com/forums/1/message.html?224426 ,but with 8.3
Teraflops it's still pretty fast:

I think they may use it for research and modeling of geologic CO2 storage
amongst other things, at the Department Of Energy. But does this mean that for
large computers Linux is now better or at least equally good an Operating System
as Unix?
