World's Most Powerful Computer Doubles in Size


Blue Gene/L, already ranked as the fastest supercomputer on the planet, has been doubled in size, according to researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California. Lawrence Livermore has been running a 32,000-processor system since December, but three weeks ago trucks began delivering the components that allowed it to add another 32,000-processors worth of power to the supercomputer, effectively doubling its processing power.
