Miya) Organization: NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif. Lines: 16 Ah! yes, Dik is right, and what Scott said about the adjustable vector length is right. I've run on TOO many of these machines I and I have to go back and check manuals. Dik is also right about noting the NEC SX-2 as the fastest uniprocessor super, but the original article never brought the SX up. I wish to thank the Rice people for HARC access, and the Amdahl people [indirectly, the 1200 people know nothing of Usenet access].
