Hi,

Has anybody here knowledge about how a micro-Vax compares with a
SUN/50+FPU with regard to intensive double precision calculations, done in
multi-user mode?  Does the 4Mb inner memory become a bottleneck when more
then one user are doing intensive calculations using large matrices? How
about a SUN/60, is the only speed difference between it and SUN/50 due to
higher clock frequency?
