Fujitsu today announced that independent benchmarking tests put its new entry-level server, the
PRIMERGY TX100 S1
, straight in at the top of the charts – assuring small- and medium-size customers that the upgrade to a business-class server really does pay dividends.
The PRIMERGY TX100 S1 model set two new world records in the one-socket server class in benchmarking tests overseen by SPEC
®
, the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation. These are in the categories for energy efficiency, and for performance running typical
server side
Java business applications.
The Energy Star 5.0-compliant PRIMERGY TX100 S1 was designed to save energy. Validation comes in the form of the
SPECpower_ssj2008
benchmark, which evaluates server power and performance characteristics. In tests, the PRIMERGY TX100 S1 set a new world record for one-socket servers, with 1,500 overall ssj_ops/watt.
Underlining its operational capabilities, the new entry-level PRIMERGY model also set a new high score in the
SPECjbb2005
benchmark, which
evaluates the performance of server side Java
. In the category for single-socket servers, the PRIMERGY TX100 S1 racked up a SPECjbb2005 score of 223,691
business
operations per second (SPECjbb2005 bops) and 111,846 bops/JVM.
