S1014 EPG0 4-core CPW per core
CPW per core is the CPW rating divided by the cores that deliver it. IBM i is licensed by core, so this number shows how much IBM i work you get from each licensed core. Use it to compare processors, and use total CPW to size the whole workload.
| Configuration | Cores counted | CPW | CPW per core |
|---|---|---|---|
| EPG0 4-core | All 4 cores | 106,300 | 26,575 |
S1014 EPG0 4-core AIX performance (rPerf)
rPerf is the relative performance rating for AIX workloads. ST is single-thread. SMT2, SMT4, and SMT8 show the rating with two, four, or eight hardware threads running on each core.
| Configuration | ST | SMT2 | SMT4 | SMT8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPG0 4-core | 38.6 | 76.4 | 102.6 | 129.4 |

Compare S1014 EPG0 4-core with other S1014 configurations
EPG0 keeps IBM i in P05 with up to 64 GB of memory. EPG2 nearly doubles CPW to 205,300 and memory to 1 TB, and moves IBM i to P10.
| Configuration | Cores | Sockets | Clock GHz | IBM i tier | CPW | CPW per core | rPerf SMT8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPG0 4-core (this page) | 4 | 1 | 3.0 to 3.9 | P05 | 106,300 | 26,575 | 129.4 |
| EPG2 8-core | 8 | 1 | 3.0 to 3.9 | P10 | 205,300 | 25,663 | 254.2 |
For a four-core IBM i system in P05, the Power 11 S1112 EJMT reaches 117,300 CPW in a half-wide 2U chassis.
