 P3 system evaluation is not yet completed (as of early November 2016).  Anticipated specifications, based on Waterloo's RFP and bids received, include the following.  This information is NOT GUARANTEED and might not be complete.  It is provided for planning purposes.
+The parallel filesystem, interconnects and external persistent storage will be the same as GP2.
-Parallel filesystem: Approximately 4PB usable capacity for temporary (/scratch) storage.  Aggregate performance of approximately 40GB/s.  Available to all nodes.
-External persistent storage: 10PB or more of storage for persistent (/project and other) storage. Available to compute nodes, but not designed for parallel workloads.
-High performance interconnect: Low-latency high-performance fabric connecting all nodes and temporary storage.  The design of GP3 is to support multiple simultaneous parallel jobs of at least 1024 cores in a fully non-blocking manner.  Jobs larger than 1024 cores would be less well-suited for the topology.
