Here, the performance of the Intel iPSC/860 hypercube and the Ncube 6400 hypercube are compared with earlier hypercubes from Intel and Ncube. Computation and communication performance for a number of low-level benchmarks are presented for the Intel iPSC/1, iPSC/2, and iPSC/860 and for the Ncube 3200 and 6400. File I/O performance of the iPSC/860 and Ncube 6400 are compared.
