    HP and Oracle Set World Record Performance Mark -- First to Top 1
    Million Transactions per Minute

    HP and Oracle broke through a key technology performance barrier,
    becoming the first companies ever to top 1 million transactions per
    minute on the Transaction Processing Council's TPC-C benchmark.

    The result was achieved running Oracle Database 10g, an HP Integrity
    Superdome server and IntelŪ ItaniumŪ 2 processors.
    ...
    HP and Oracle achieved 1,008,144.49 tpmC with a price/performance
    ratio of $8.33/tpmC. This result is 30 percent faster than achieved by
    the nearest competitive hardware vendor. The benchmark configuration
    consisted of a (non-clustered) 64-way HP Integrity Superdome running
    HP-UX 11i v2

No, this wasn't on VMS, but it does reflect positively on the
performance of the Superdome platform with the Itanium2 chip, which
will soon be a platform option for VMS customers.
