New STAC-A2 record. The HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 just posted the highest audited throughput, energy efficiency, and space efficiency of any STAC-A2 server: 100.8 options/sec, 231,271 options/kWh, and 133.8 options/hr/in³, all from a single 1U box. Inside: dual 128-core Intel Xeon 6980P CPUs and 24 x 64GB Micron MRDIMMs running at 8800 MT/s. Liquid-cooled cold plates on the CPUs keep 256 cores from throttling in 1U, and the swap from RDIMMs alone bumped Greeks calculations up to 23% on large problem sizes. For trading desks, that means faster end-of-day risk runs without taking more rack space or power. Full breakdown with generational comparisons is on the site, link in bio. #HPE #STACA2 #IntelXeon6
