This list and China's place on it are both irrelevant for the following reasons: 1. Any entrant that extensively relies on GPU's for its performance should not even be on the list or at least appear with an asterisk. The "G" in GPU does not stand for general. Consequently this machine is principally applicable to specific problem sets that are designed to take advantage of the processing power provided by the GPU. 2. Primary attention in the supercomputing space has shifted focus from using pure flops as a metric to flops per watt as the primary concern. Beyond that, focus has also shifted towards interconnect technology to keep all those flops well fed with data. Just like the Chinese to be a few steps behind the thought leaders but front and center for biggest and most easily duplicated.
