Table 2: Summary of the AS/400e server 270
Note 1: Commercial Processing Workload (CPW) is used to measure the performance of all AS/400 processors
announced from September 1996 onward. The CPW value is measured on maximum configurations. The
type and number of disk devices, the number of workstation controllers, the amount of memory, the system
model, other factors, and the application running determine what performance is achievable. With the
introduction of the Dedicated Servers for Domino, Simple Mail Users is added as a performance
measurement.
Note 2: Processor performance represents the relative performance (maximum capacity) of a processor feature
running CPW in a client/server environment. Processor capacity is achievable when the commercial
workload is not constrained by main storage and DASD. Interactive Performance represents the relative
performance available to perform host-centric workloads. The amount of interactive capacity consumed
reduces the available processor capacity by the same amount.
Note 3: The Integrated Server is mutually exclusive with the high-speed slot for LAN in the Base System Unit.
Note 4: One line is used by the Operations Console.
Note 5: Total number of external tape drives does not increase.
Note 6: Integrated Server refers to Integrated Netfinity Server.
