> not a benchmark but an Olympic record

Er, excuse me, but what's an Olympic record?
Has the International Olympic Committee (IOC) started an event
for supercomputing?  Sorry, I was vacationing and I also happened
to swing by the ISCA.  If this is something new, I would appreciate
an open discussion as I am composing the FAQ and this sounds worthy
of having a paragraph if it's something really significant.
