World record in energy efficient sorting
We are currently holding the world record in energy efficient sorting, JouleSort! EcoSort results are about three
times more energy efficient in sorting 10 and 100 gigabytes of data than the next contestant. Sorting one terabyte of data is even four
times better than the second place.
