I recently did an analysis and it looks like for most supercomputers, only 15% of the total price is interconnect. I was surprised- I expected it to be more. Also, most supercomputers aren't hypercubes, they're using things like folded butterfly.

I'm really curious what process you were able to use to separate the component costs on systems like these. The manufacturers go out of their way to obfuscate that information.
