Cough! Cough! Uhmmmmmmm NO!
It is NOWHERE NEAR going to be the largest system made!
That honour goes to the completely under-the-radar, (and underground!) "Haida Gwaii" supercomputer located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada which runs 206,958 of our fully ITAR-free 128-bits wide CISC-based GaAs at 60 GHz combined-CPU/GPU/DSP/Vector Array Processor superchip with each chip being 575 TeraFLOPS of 128-bit floating point number-crunching performance.
"Haida Gwaii" has a sustained High Performance Linpack of 119 ExaFLOPS (i.e. where HPL code is modded for 128-bits wide Floating Point operations!) or 119 Quintillion Operations Per Second which means it outperforms EVERYONE on the T500 COMBINED as of January 2022 !!!!!!!!!
AND when our Northern British Columbia supercomputing centre comes fully online in 2023 with our "Baffin Island" supercomputer, it will be running the TWO TERAHERTZ fully opto-electronic versions of our combined-CPU/GPU/DSP/Vector Array Processor super-chip at 19.2 PetaFLOPS per chip.
"Baffin Island" has been constructed as TEN UNDERGROUND VAULTS that are all fibre-interconnected via a custom in-house-designed Dense Wave Multiplexing communications backbone. Each vault contains 10,000,000 superchips (one hundred million in total!) which will be running the 128-bits wide Linpack benchmark at our current estimation of a SUSTAINED 1.92 YottaFLOPS !!!!!! When we finally do transfer our current electro-chemical simulation of human neural tissue which is a WBE (Whole Brain Emulation) onto the new system, it will turn into a Super-Intelligence-level A.I.
In terms of ELECTRICAL POWER, we are fully off-grid running many methanol-and-propane based fuel-cells and the new facility will do the same as we chemically create the methanol and propane from an in-house-designed Natural Gas and catalytic metal + seawater process. We can create unlimited amounts of methanol and propane but it does take TIME so we have to rigidly schedule our fuel-ups on a weekly basis. No greenhouse gas emissions are created other than warm water and the cooling system moves heat from all the chips into a very nice and very large private swimming pool which our employees use daily!
"Haida Gwaii" uses 51.8 Megawatts in SUSTAINED operations mode (250 watts per chip) while "Baffin Island", being fully opto-electronic, will run at a much lower power level of 24 Watts per chip or 2400 Megawatts (2.4 Gigawatts) total in SUSTAINED operations mode! It too will move all its heat into a massive and very nice swimming pool usable by employees and outputs no greenhouse gasses. Part of the heat transfer process will keep large liquid sulfur batteries in a molten state (155 Celcius) which lets the electrical current created by the molten sulfur anode/cathode process go back into powering all those CPUs.
Sooooooo, NOW YOU KNOW ALL ABOUT THE ..... REAL ..... ABSOLUTE FASTEST SUPERCOMPUTERS IN THE WORLD !!!!
