Compaq server yields highest benchmarks

Compaq's ProLiant 7000 server achieved the highest-ever benchmark numbers of any two- or four-processor platform, using the Microsoft Messaging Application Program Interface (MAPI) Messaging Benchmark (MMB).

Compaq claims that a ProLiant with two 450MHz Pentium II Xeon processors scored 14,600 MMB, while a server with four 450MHz Pentium II Xeon processors scored 21,500 MMB.

MMB measures throughput in terms of a specific profile of user actions, executed over an 8-hour day.
