China's TIANHE-2 (Milkyway 2 that is) has a mind blowing speed of 33.86 petaflops and is ahead of schedule by two years! It is twice as fast as the current supercomp Titan (USA).
(A petaflop is the ability of a computer to do one quadrillion floating point operations per second (#-Link-Snipped-#). Additionally, a petaflop can be measured as one thousand teraflops.)
