Abstract :
Multicore and multithreaded CPUs have become the new approach to obtaining increases in CPU performance. Numeric applications mostly benefit from a large number of computationally powerful cores. Servers typically benefit more if chip circuitry is used for maximizing throughput via multiple threads per core.
