Subtract maybe 40 addresses for machines with more than one (gateways) and we get about 105 machines. I would venture to guess that half are VAXen and half are SUNs. Virtually all are research machines. Maybe 10 VAX 11/750s are for teaching. Most of the other VAXen are also 750s, with about 8 or so 780s and a few 730s, etc.. Research cycles are OK, but things do get quite loaded down in the afternoons. You can usually find all the research cycles you want between 2am and 9am. Teaching machines are heavily loaded, often load averages of ~20 with 40 users. They are loaded around the clock. Ucbvax, the 750 gateway to UUCP and other networks, has had a load average as high as 76.0, but not in recent times. Long live readnews. Accounts on the machines are tightly controlled -- you must show need and some sort of proposal. Faculty sponsorship is usually required. This list is for the entire Berkeley campus. Most all of them are in EECS, or Computing Facilities, with maybe 10 or so in Math/Stat, etc.. Any Bezerkeleyites have more solid info? --Bob
