Re: Processor speed

[Dave_Dahlstrom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

The Processor Speed is relevant.  ERP applications, Lotus Domino and the like
are all very CPU intensive applications, they were created for PC type
architecture platforms and ported across to the AS/400,  and as such you require
a decent processor speed or multiple processors,  the AS/400 architecture helps
slightly with these applications,  such as reliability, scalability and Disk
access.  The 720-2063 is a 200Mhz with 4MB L2 cache,  the rumours are we will
see 400-500Mhz processors,  which are a god send for these types of applications
especially Domino.
