I assume that you mean the *single processor* record, since the list
that Dongarra publiished in the latest CAN shows the 8 processor YMP
turning in 200 MFLOPS.  Not to take anything away from the admittedly
amazing ETA numbers.

As a side note, I was quite happy to see that Cray and ETA between
them took *all* of the top slots (about 10, wish I had my copy here...)
The threat from the new Japanese machines may have been exagerated.
(at least until the SX-3 comes out).
