[SunRescue] 690MP cpu is about equivalent to what other sparc s?

[Hatle, Steven J.]

Dan,

I'm in Northfield, MN. I run my 630 most all the time, but the 670 is
sporadic. I'd have to leave the 630 off for a month, and see how much the
bill went down.

OTOH, when both are running, it makes the basement much more comfortable,
especially during our fine MN winters.  .  . <grin>

Steve

I guess I was undulging in some hyperbole ;). If the module extends over
the RAM, however, it's possible you could damage memory.

According to the Mbus reference, 2.14.3, or 2.14.3(h) for the highest-end
modules.

Incidentally, if any of you in Excel Energy (Minnesota) territory have a
6x0MP and can comment on how it's affecting your power bill, I would
appreciate it. My rough calculations put it at $8-10/mo, but I haven't run
it for an entire month yet.
