An efficient implementation on the CRAY Y-MP of a new full configuration interaction algorithm is illus trated on a model problem. This shows how a careful optimization can lead to huge speedups in CPU times and interesting speedups in the overall elapsed times. The implementation takes full advantage of the algo rithm's characteristics, with a full vectorization of the heaviest innermost loops and parallelization of the im mediately outer loops.
