I knew these newer IBM i Power Systems were powerful, but now it seems they are able to achieve CPU perfomance that must require cooling with liquid nitrogen!

I was recently doing some testing on an IBM virtual server and started the HTTP server.  Yes, it still seems to take forever to start and I think now we can see why.  The CPU governor on the new power systems is finally allowing the Power of Java on IBM i systems to reach it's full potential!

Is this possible... it seems so.

Just think if RPG were able to utilize this much CPU... we'd be running cycle count reports in no time!
