SPECjvm2008 Sun Fire X4450 First Result Ever Published
Thursday Jul 17, 2008
The Sun Fire X4450 server demonstrates Sun's position of leadership in Java based computing by publishing the first result ever for the new SPEC benchmark JVM2008. The Sun Fire X4450 server delivered a result of 260.08 SPECjvm2008 Base ops/m.
Now we just need the other vendors (SPEC members who must have approved the benchmark) to step up and start publishing...

Benchmark Description
SPECjvm2008 (Java Virtual Machine Benchmark) is a benchmark suite for measuring the performance of a Java Runtime Environment (JRE), containing several real life applications and benchmarks focusing on core java functionality. The suite focuses on the performance of the JRE executing a single application; it reflects the performance of the hardware processor and memory subsystem, but has low dependence on file I/O and includes no network I/O across machines. The SPECjvm2008 workload mimics a variety of common general purpose application computations. These characteristics reflect the intent that this benchmark will be applicable to measuring basic Java performance on a wide variety of both client and server systems.
SPEC also finds user experience of Java important, and the suite therefore includes startup benchmarks and has a required run category called base, which must be run without any tuning of the JVM to improve the out of the box performance.
SPECjvm2008 benchmark highlights:
- Leverages real life applications (like derby, sunflow, and javac) and area-focused benchmarks (like xml, serialization, crypto, and scimark).
