    Storage First Pi Record: 314 Trillion Digits on a Single Dell R7725

    StorageReview’s lab has reset the high-water mark for brute-force numerical computing: the team computed π to 314 trillion digits using a single 2U server, a four‑month uninterrupted run that makes a pointed argument about where real-world bottlenecks live in extreme-scale computations and why...
