Larry,

Not to speak for Lukas, but the announcement letters referred to an
effective rating of 800 CPW for workloads with heavy I/O. This limitation
however is not due to the processor but to the limited number of arms (8)
that are available on the 515.

Kind regards,

BJ

Lukas I believe you are wrong. I don't know where you got the 800 CPW
from.

The 515 runs 'wide open' at 3,800 CPW and is capped only by user count.
You may purchase a second CPU to get you to approx 7,100 CPW.
