Thanks for all the thoughtful comments on my post about software keeping up with multi-core processing.
Jon Udell posts some more on the subject in response to a Register piece by Shahin Khan and a comment by Patrick Logan.
Systems with 7000 CPUs? Do we then need 7000 heatsinks? Or do we consider it a feature and throw away our heaters?
