[Info-vax] Floating point emulation of OpenVMS / Alpha / ES

[Nick K]

I'm curious what to expect when moving OpenVMS from an Alpha / ES server to a virtual machine with an emulator.  I'm mostly looking at the single threaded / single core floating point performance.  Are there emulators that are significantly better / worse for this task?  Can I expect a comparable running time on the fastest (clock speed) Intel Xeon money can buy today?
