Which is too high and which too low? You measured the HEPSPEC06 (I hope!!). Did you measure SI2K or just take a number from some suppliers web page? If we all actually measure our resources then we will have a consistent set of numbers with which to compare sites. So some of the old ones were wrong? That's what the exercise was about - SI2K was no longer accepted as a good measure of the power of modern systems to run HEP codes. Now what we do about this discrepancy in past accounting? That's a different question.
