China has built the world’s fastest supercomputer – almost twice as fast as the previous U.S. record holder
The Tianhe-2, which means Milky Way 2, was developed by the National University of Defense Technology in China’s Changsha city and is capable of sustained computing of 33.86 petaflops per second.
That’s the equivalent of 33,860 trillion calculations per second, with the average everyday computer performing around 100 million per second
