We also showed some baseline runs on the machine there, and we had previously reported (http://scalability.org/?p=1706) a sustained 2.5GB/s read and write for 128 GB sized files (much larger than memory).

We also (accidentally stealthily, was supposed to be unstealthily) announced our siCluster product. We should de-cloak that correctly (it went into the SC09 press release black hole). Think herds of tremendously fast machines pushing data out over huge pipes (http://scalability.org/?p=1980).

This was a good show for us, and for the other partners in the Intel partner booth. iX had some nice SSD systems showing off IOP monster systems. Many others had nice focused displays.

Again, thanks for the coverage!
