IBM Sequoia Supercomputer 3 times more power efficient then the rest

20 Pflops in 2012.
With first transactional memory inside.
IBM only implemented transactional memory within the confines of a single chip using a tagging scheme on the chip's 32MB level-two cache memory. The tags are used to detect any load/store conflicts in data to be used in a so-called atomic transaction scheduled by the computer.
