mircea_popescu: Troic i used the http://www.top500.org/lists/2013/06/ list
Troic: what about boinc ? it reports 8.8 petaflops of compute over the last 24hours : https://boinc.berkeley.edu/

dexX7: didn't know that flops are so much easier than hashops
mircea_popescu: in the end i guess this woud be the one base conversion factor, sqA of silicon space.
dexX7: ah, good to know
mircea_popescu: i mean, obviously you can make cores that do sqrt(x) in one cycle
mircea_popescu: even if you take "full hardware implementation" : you can easy fit 1000 flop cores in the space a hashcore takes
mircea_popescu: but no, the flop = hashop equality is nonsense.
dexX7: and i suggest to assume FLOP = HASHOP or so.. both are "special" and would take many more regular ALUops
dexX7: replace all T with a P and you're fine
mircea_popescu: hah. people using fucking commas the wrong way
pankkake: could one of those supercomputers 51% attack litecoin?
dexX7: Tianhe-2 - 33 TFLOPS
