I am a home user looking to purchase an entry level server specifically =
to use GMP with linux.
I am interested in integer arithmetic and the current SPECint results =
show that the HP Itanium 2 zx1 chipset is the leader. But looking in the =
latest GMP manual I don't see any support for these 64-bit Intel CPUs.=20
Does GMP support this CPU? Or are future releases going to support it?
I am also looking at the Alphaserver DS25, where the alphaev68 CPU is =
supported by GMP, but it doesn't handle linux like the Itantium =
machines.
Regards
