The SGI Origin family are large Unix servers using the MIPS processor. They are characterized by their massively insane scalability and I/O bandwidths. - NASA AMES run a [6144-way Origin 2000 cluster|http://www.lanl.gov/asci/bluemtn/ASCI_fly.pdf]%%% - Several universities/research groups run 1024-way single image Origin 3000/2000 systems The latest model, the Origin 3000, is designed around a modular set of "[bricks|http://www.sgi.com/origin/3000/bricks.html]", so you have different bricks which contain CPUs, RAM, PCI-X slots, etc. With the latest CPU modules, SGI can fit 128 CPUs and quarter of a terabyte of memory in a single rack. Older models were limited to 16 or 32 CPUs per rack. [http://www.sgi.com/origin/3000/images/origin3000_home.jpg]
