In September 2005, HP produced new Microsoft® Exchange MAPI Messaging Benchmark (MMB3) results using Microsoft Windows® Server 2003 and Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, on an HP ProLiant BL25p blade server powered by two Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ Model 280 processors (2.4 GHz, 1 MB L2). The MMB3 benchmarking workload and methodology serves as the standard for Exchange Server 2003 MAPI server comparison. The MMB3 workload is characteristic of a medium corporate mail environment. Using the Microsoft LoadSim utility, the ProLiant BL25p server was tested at the HP Performance Center in Nashua, New Hampshire. This performance brief describes the outstanding benchmark results achieved.
