>HT actually allow for executing multiple instructions on same execution pipeline.
I know what Hyper-Threading does. I’m not naïve.

>And read article. They aim at splitting whenever possible.
I read it and it makes far more sense than what you’re implying.

>I mean less power needed to for operation of gates. Which means less heat. Which means smaller chip size.
This is a software project, not reinventing the computer chip.

>Anyway, we get to maximum of frequency, and also can not tweak single core for better perf indefinitely. Adding more cores and getting them to cooperate & share hardware more efficiently is way to go.
Irrelevant to this article.

>Did I mentioned that GPGPU is becoming serious solution for computing?
No, you didn’t. And I’m already aware. With Microsoft proposing C++ AMP and with OpenCL taking the helm towards that goal it’s more than obvious that’s the future of computing they want.
