Yep, that was the official thing I mentioned in my 1st post and I think I have to take a closer look at those values and descriptions.
Currently I might simply have a look for our processors ie.
and just compare them with some middle sized p7 boxes to get some kind of ratios.
Tbh I am not sure if we use more int or fp base calculations. That's something I never (or anyone in our company) lost a thought about.
Well, for fp to get interesting, someone would be modeling airflow on a wing or something like that, with huge matrixes of fp (more at home on a SIMD box but $$). Even applications with considerable fp still use many int operations to calculate addresses. Applications more in strings and RDBMS get very little from fp prowess.
I have no idea what I should set the topic here =='
