a performance Rating of "Tianhe-2", which in Chinese translates as "milky way — 2", is 33,86 petaflops per second, allowing you to perform a quadrillion calculations per second, reports CNET.

Now in the "Tianhe-2" is used approximately 80,000 Intel Xeon processors.

the Second performance supercomputer located at the National laboratory in Oak ridge in the USA. His power is limited 17,59 petaflops per second. Ranking of supercomputers updated every six months since June 1993.
