Introduction to Performance of IBM UNIX, IBM i and Linux Operating System Servers
September 2021

This document contains performance and benchmark results for IBM® Power® servers and IBM PowerLinux servers
that run the UNIX® (AIX®), IBM i and Linux® operating systems

This release contains rPerf and CPW results for new offerings of Power® E1080.

Changes from September 2021 version are highlighted thus.

NOTE: Power9 frequency is expressed as a range from Typical GHz to Max GHz.
NOTE: The Power S924 and Power E950 by default will have its Power Management mode set to Max Performance. This mode dynamically optimizes the
processor frequency at any given time based on CPU utilization and operating environmental conditions.
FOOTNOTE 1: Power E950 performance numbers have been submitted for review and publication.

NOTE: Power9 frequency is expressed as a range from Typical GHz to Max GHz.
NOTE: Up to 5% additional rPerf may be realized for Power7 and Power8 processor–based systems with Intelligent Energy Optimization enabled depending
on the system.
NOTE: The Power S922, Power S924, Power E950, and Power E980 systems by default will have its Power Management mode set to Max Performance. The
S914 system by default will have its Power Management mode set to Dynamic Performance. Both modes dynamically optimize the processor frequency at
any given time based on CPU utilization and operating environmental conditions.
NOTE: Some Power E880 and Power E880C systems may include a mix of 40-core and 48-core LPARs.

NOTE: Power9 frequency is expressed as a range from Typical GHz to Max GHz.
NOTE: The performance numbers shown here are for Power S914 with its Power Management mode set to non-default Max Performance. This mode
dynamically optimizes the processor frequency at any given time based on CPU utilization and operating environmental conditions. Running Power S914
systems in the non-default power mode of Max Performance mode may cause measurably higher sound levels under high utilization.

NOTE: Up to 5% additional rPerf may be realized for Power8 processor–based systems with Intelligent Energy Optimization enabled depending on the
system.
NOTE: Power9 processor–based frequency is expressed as a range from Typical GHz to Max GHz.
NOTE: Power E980 systems by default will have its Power Management mode set to Max Performance. This mode dynamically optimizes the processor
frequency at any given time based on CPU utilization and operating environmental conditions.

FOOTNOTE 1: The Power S922, Power S924, and Power E980 by default will have its Power Management mode set to Max Performance. The Power S914 by
default will have its Power Management mode set to Dynamic Performance. Both modes dynamically optimize the processor frequency at any given time
based on CPU utilization and operating environmental conditions.

Notes on Performance Benchmarks and Values

The performance benchmarks and the values shown here were derived using particular, well configured, development-level computer
systems. Unless otherwise indicated for a system, the values were derived using fully populated DIMM slots and external cache if external
cache is supported on the system. All performance benchmark values are provided "AS IS" and no warranties or guarantees are expressed
or implied by IBM. Actual system performance may vary and is dependent upon many factors including system hardware configuration and
software design and configuration. Buyers should consult other sources of information to evaluate the performance of systems they are
considering buying and should consider conducting application-oriented testing. For additional information about the performance
benchmarks, values and systems tested, please contact your IBM local Branch Office or IBM Authorized Reseller or access the following on
the Web: http://www.spec.org

All performance measurements for the IBM Power and IBM PowerLinux, with systems running AIX or AIX 5L operating systems unless
otherwise indicated to have used Linux. For new and upgraded systems, the latest versions of AIX and Linux and the latest versions of IBM's
high-performance C, C++, and FORTRAN compilers for AIX and Linux were used. All other systems used previous versions of the operating
systems and compilers.

SPEC® CPU2017 - SPEC CPU2017 focuses on compute-intensive performance including the processor, memory subsystem, and compilers.
The benchmark does not stress other components such as networking, graphics, Java libraries and the I/O system. Compared to the SPEC
CPU2006, the total source code has increased because most benchmarks in this suite are derived from real applications. SPECrate 2017
Integer suite has ten benchmarks, and the SPECrate 2017 Floating Point suite has thirteen benchmarks. For the detailed explanation of this
benchmark, the metrics, and the run rules, please refer to the Web: https://www.spec.org/cpu2017/Docs/overview.html

SPEC® CPU2006 - SPEC CPU2006 focuses on compute-intensive performance including the processor, memory subsystem, and compilers.
The benchmark does not stress other components such as networking, graphics, Java libraries and the I/O system. SPECrate 2006 Integer
suite has twelve benchmarks, and the SPECrate 2006 Floating Point suite has seventeen benchmarks. For the detailed explanation of this
benchmark, the metrics, and the run rules, please refer to the Web: https://www.spec.org/cpu2006/Docs/readme1st.html

SPECjbb®2015 - This benchmark measures Java performance. Performance metrics are provided for both pure throughput and critical
throughput under service-level agreements (SLAs), with response times ranging from 10 to 100 milliseconds. For the detailed explanation
of this benchmark, the metrics, and the run rules, please refer to the Web: https://www.spec.org/jbb2015/docs/userguide.pdf

Notes on Performance Estimates

rPerf (Relative Performance) is an estimate of commercial processing performance relative to other IBM UNIX systems. It is derived from
an IBM analytical model which uses characteristics from IBM internal workloads, OLTP and SPEC benchmarks. The rPerf model is not
intended to represent any specific public benchmark results and should not be reasonably used in that way. The model simulates some of
the system operations such as CPU, cache and memory. However, the model does not simulate disk or network I/O operations.

rPerf estimates are calculated based on systems with the latest levels of AIX and other pertinent software at the time of system
announcement. Actual performance will vary based on application and configuration specifics. The IBM eServer pSeries 640 is the baseline
reference system and has a value of 1.0. Although rPerf may be used to approximate relative IBM UNIX commercial processing
performance, actual system performance may vary and is dependent upon many factors including system hardware configuration and
software design and configuration. Note that the rPerf methodology used for the Power10 processor–based systems is identical to that
used for the Power9 and Power8 processor–based systems. Variations in incremental system performance may be observed in commercial
workloads due to changes in the underlying system architecture.

Commercial Processing Workload (CPW) is a relative measure of performance of processors running the IBM i operating system.
Performance in client environments may vary. The value is based on maximum configurations. More performance information is available
in the Performance Capabilities Reference at: http://www.ibm.com/systems/resources/pcrm.pdf .

All performance estimates are provided "AS IS" and no warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied by IBM. Buyers should consult
other sources of information, including system benchmarks, and application sizing guides to evaluate the performance of a system they are
considering buying. For additional information about rPerf and CPW, contact your local IBM office or IBM authorized reseller.
