Subject: [9fans] Plan 9 on large systems..
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2003 12:57:13 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <22e332e850b540c277095940cb9763c2@plan9.ucalgary.ca> (raw)

Back in the day Linux was young and relatively non-bloated there was
great excitement when people were able to boot it on large SMP
systems.  I remember being in awe looking at a bootlog from a 16-way
Alpha machine.  Now, Plan 9 has ran on large SMPs since forever (an
8-way SGI still runs in BL, right?), but recently has fallen into the
hands of slow, outdated hardware.  That's why I was so excited when I
could boot a big Compaq Proliant 8-way SMP as a cpu server on
ucalgary's network.  Is this the biggest Plan 9 has ran on?  How about
16- and 32-processor machines?

enjoy the log (the machine has 4 GB of RAM, I've limited that to 1.6): andrey
