If I guess right this machine used to be named
"speedy". (Or was
speedy an 8600?) Anyone know how many VAX MIPS this guy cranked?
A VAX 8700 was rated at 6 VUPS.
A VAX 8800 (dual processor variant) came in at 12 VUPs.
(I just quote 'em, I don't write 'em!)
A VAX 8600 came in at about 4 VUPs.
The follow on VAX 8650 came in at 6 VUPs.
These are all physically large machines.
There is also a VAX 8650 available on
ebay at the moment (in Memphis IIRC)
