Fantastic practical achievement!

I wonder if I could get similar or even better performance from similar Dell T7610 workstation with dual Xeons and also 128GB DDR3?

The CPUs are better core wise, but that probably does not make much difference?

It has CPUs 2 × Xeon E5-2697 v2

Cores / threads 24 cores / 48 threads total

Per-CPU cores 12 cores / 24 threads

Base clock 2.70 GHz

Max turbo 3.50 GHz

It is sitting gather dust but reading spead Gemma sounds promising.
