Hi Luke,

I got about 720 MB/sec to 730 MB/sec  with plain dd tests on  my current storage configuration  (8 LUNS on 4 fibers) which slowed me down (10K rpm 146 GB disks FC) with 4 LUNS going through a longer pass to the disks (via a controller master array to slave JBODs to provide ) .

I can probably bump it up a bit with fine storage tuning (LUN)  but there is no limitation on the Sun Fire T2000 to bottleneck on anything plus dd tests are not the best throughput measurement tool.

Yes UltraSPARC T1 supports the SPARC V9 architecture and can support all the SPARC binaries already generated or newly generated using gcc or Sun Studio 11 which is also free.
