Geezzeee…what are we really complaining about here.
I’ve been using Core2Quads, i3 and i5s with 64bit Win7 for some time now and they just rip right through everything I can throw at them; and i7s are even faster. Maybe they should focus on perfecting multi-distributed branch processing; although energy and heat are key issues.
Exactly. The fewer machines in a cluster, the less energy and heat produced.
That means more cores/CPU. Hence the discussion.
