JavaOne: World Record Single JVM result
Wednesday May 09, 2007
Sun's single-JVM World Record:
- The 72-way Sun Fire E25K with 1.8 GHz US-IV+ set a World Record with a single-instance result of 1,149,100 SPECjbb2005 bops, 1,149,100 SPECjbb2005 bops/JVM on SPECjbb2005.
- The Sun Fire E25K with dual-core US-IV+ 1.8GHz and running Java SE 1.6.0_02 outperformed Fujitsu PrimeQuest 580 with dual-core Itanium 2 processors and running BEA JRockit by 4%.
- The 72-way Sun Fire E25K with 1.8 GHz US-IV+ processors set a World Record with a single-instance result of 1,149,100 SPECjbb2005 bops, 1,149,100 SPECjbb2005 bops/JVM on the SPECjbb2005 benchmark, Sun has a much higher result SPECjbb2005 using multiple JVMs running on a 1.95GHz US-IV+ processor. The Sun Fire E25K with 1.95GHz US-IV+ processors set a World Record for systems with 72 or fewer chips, achieving 2,105,264 SPECjbb2005 bops and 29,240 SPECjbb2005 bops/JVM on SPECjbb2005.

Benchmark Description
SPECjbb2005 (Java Business Benchmark) measures the performance of a Java implemented application tier (server-side Java). The benchmark is based on the order processing in a wholesale supplier application. The performance of the user tier and the database tier are not measured in this test. The metrics given are number of SPECjbb2005 bops (Business Operations per Second) and SPECjbb2005 bops/JVM (bops per JVM instance).
