GemStone has had performance optimizations that require CPU features that are not available on older CPUs.
The minimum required CPUs for v3.7 are:
- Intel CPUs with architecture Sandy Bridge or newer (excluding Atom CPUs)
- AMD CPUs with architecture Bulldozer version 1 or newer
Attempting to run on older CPUs will fail errors such as:
[Error]: Program cannot start because the CPU is missing the following feature(s):
[Error]: aes avx pclmul
[Error]: For more information, please contact GemTalk technical support.
