High Throughput SPARC T4 Processors
SPARC T4 processor can improve application parallelism by executing 64 threads at a time – 40nm technology inside allows accommodate 8 threads per core and 8 core per CPU chip, Plus, computation-intensive applications can enjoy high performance because two computations can be executed in parallel at a time.
Access time to access to memory and I/O is shortened because CPU chip inside are controllers including memory controllers, PCI Express Unit(PEU), and Network Interface Unit (NIU) are.
High Performance Technologies
Multi-core
Excellent CPU chip performance is provided by incorporating multiple CPU cores on a singe CPU chip. SPARC T4 processor has Max.8 cores per CPU chip and provide much improved multi-threading and parallel processing performance from 64 simultaneous threads.
Multi-threading
Multi-thread technology enables each single CPU core to run in parallel. SPARC T4 processor have 8 threads per core with 2 threads can compute in parallel on each CPU clock cycle.
