I just started getting some training on the mainframe at work.

It's insane. I love it. We checked the system status yesterday.

92, 000 processes. CPU Usage: 17.1%

The operator girl who is training me says they have about 30 gigs of ram installed.

thirty
gigs.

It. Is. Awesome.

And there are THREE of these machines there.

And I need to code

The database server for the online class site thingy (not sure if there's a term for that?) has 10GB of ram. I almost humped it one time. KIDDING.

Oh, sweet IBM... You can virtualize on a hardware level, say 20% to one virtual machine and 80% to another...

..Though we've gone mostly for a clustering approach at work. Many servers working as one!
