- Compute time on gen1 nodes is charged at 40% of actual walltime. Depending on cores used and memory throughput demanded, these nodes may actually be about on par with gen2 (low memory throughput) or up to about 2–3 times slower.
Storage
- Lustre parallel file system for /home and /sandbox
- ≈60 TB total
- local disk per compute node, 160–250 GB
Interconnect
- Infiniband 4x DDR (Mellanox, onboard ) – used for parallel communication and storage
- Ethernet 1 GB/s – used for general node access and management
Power
- Power consumption at typical load: ≈125 kW
