The VAXstation
4000/90 is a 42 VUP system and the VAX 4000/400 is a
16 VUP system, so you aren't doing too bad. I seem to recall the
VAX 4000/700A is about 40 VUPs and the /705A is about 45-50 VUPs.
The VAX CPU Summary lists these numbers:
VS4000/90 32.8 VUPS
4000/700a 40 VUPS
4000/705a 45 VUPS

but I can post VUPs for requested systems from
the list, if you ask.
Ok, what are the VUPs rating of the
MicroVAX 3400, 3500, 3800, and 4000/200 (KA640, KA650, KA655, and
KA660)

That page is inaccurate, and is missing a lot of VUP ratings.

Here is a link to a Compaq web site that lists VUP ratings:

At 12:08 PM 9/20/01, Emmanuel replied to my question with :
(the VAX hardware reference), however this reference is unreliable when it
comes to VUPs ratings.
Eric has confirmed that it was correct on the ones I asked about, we
already had the 4000/100 vs 4000/90 vs 4000/700 discussions :-)

The numbers above are the VUPs. The DSN listing for
the /90 and /90A are off
by 10. I got ambitious and ran some more tests. The /90 is 32-33 and the
/90A is 38-39. The VAX 7730 systems at work are 150 VUPs.
Makes sense. Do you know if the 7650 is faster than the 7730 or not?
What's interesting when reviewing the list is to
see how the bus architecture
impacts the VUPs on identical CPUs. For instance the 7610 is 35 VUPs but the
6610 is only 32 VUPs.
Are they indeed identical? Down to the clock speed? I knew Laserbus was
faster than XMI, but I didn't know the difference was this wide.
