I wish the software industry would drive the hardware industry instead.
Wouldnt it be nice if we had software capable of being executed in 24 threads but not yet the processor to do it?
Then we could just be counting the weeks till a 24 thread processor came out to provide all that power.
I like that world more than 'we have a 24 thread processor but we need to make each core as fast as possible so we still run those 1 threaded codes faster'
