The GeoComputing group operates an ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. ESC4000 G3 Series server with 256 GB of main memory. It acts as compute server for applications requiring a huge amount of directly addressable memory and as a test-bed for porting our applications to multi-core systems. It is an Intel Broadwell based machine with 36 cores that can run 72 threads (near) simultaneously making use of Intel's hyper-threading technology. The system has two Intel Xeon CPU E5-2695 v4 18-Core CPUs and a directly attached 22 TB hard-drive (RAID 6).
