35% less energy per transaction 35% less energy per transaction (Watts/tpmC) than published Oracle energy usage data

2.7x faster per core

IBM POWER7 TPC-C Result: IBM Power 780: 10,366,254 tpmC at $1.38USD/tpmC avail 2010/10/13, (24proc/192core/768thread) Oracle Sun TPC-C Result: Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440: 7,646,486 tpmC at $2.36USD/tpmC, avail 2010/03/19, (48proc/384core/3072thread). TPC-C results available at www.tpc.org. Energy estimates are not related and should not be compared to official TPC-Energy results. Energy comparisons are between IBM and Oracle/Sun system configurations referenced above. IBM POWER7 energy consumption = 65130 Watts, 0.006282 Watts/tpmC; Oracle/Sun system consumption = 73932 Watts, 0.009668 Watts/tpmC. Oracle energy estimate from Oracle-published results available at http://www.oracle.com/features/strategic-focus-report.pdf. IBM energy estimate based in IBM calculations using customer-available energy estimation tools for IBM servers, storage energy estimation reports available from IBM Techline services, and published component active power consumption specifications.
