Lines: 44 Approved: info-vax@sri-kl.arpa Following the recent discussion on where the new VAXen fit in, I though the following table might be of interest. It is based on information obtained from DEC, so the figures shown are not based on an independent assessment, however they give a useful comparative guide. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MODEL PERFORMANCE CPU RAM DISK TYP. USERS MIPS MBytes MBytes TYPICAL ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MicroVAX I 0.3 1 1-9 31+ 1-4 Obsolete MicroVAX II 0.9 1 1-9 71+ 1-24 VAX 11/725 0.4 1 1-4 120+ 1-4 Obsolete VAX 11/730 0.4 1 1-9 450+ 1-16 Obsolete VAX 11/750 0.6 1 1-8 450+ 5-32 VAX 11/780 1.0 1 1-32 450+ 10-50 VAX 11/782 1.8 2 1-32 450+ 10-50 Obsolete VAX 11/785 2.0 1 4-64 450+ 10-80 VAX 8200 1.1 1 2-16 450+ 10-80 VAX 8300 2.0 2 2-14 450+ 10-120 VAX 8600 3.8 1 4-68 1350+ 20-250 VAX 8650 5.5 1 4-68 1350+ 20-250 VAX 8800 11.0 2 32 1800+ 50-500 VAX Cluster 1-100 2-15+ <=== several of the above ===> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Although not obsolete at present, the 750,780 and probably the 785 will become so as the 8200 and 8300 become available in volume.
