Chip-Multitheaded Multicore Processor and
Memory Technology
The UltraSPARC T1 multicore processor is the basis of the server. The UltraSPARC
T1 processor is based on chip-multithreading (CMT) technology that is optimized for
highly threaded transactional processing. The UltraSPARC T1 processor improves
throughput while using less power and dissipating less heat than conventional
processor designs.
Depending on the model purchased, the processor has four, six, or eight UltraSPARC
cores. Each core equates to a 64-bit execution pipeline capable of running four
threads. The result is that the 8-core processor handles up to 32 active threads
concurrently.
Additional processor components, such as L1 cache, L2 cache, memory access
crossbar, DDR2 memory controllers, and a JBus I/O interface have been carefully
tuned for optimal performance. See
