The cores are coming! The cores are coming! The next round of Intel Xeon chips have core-counts in tens. UltraSPARC = Niagara (T1, T2, et alia) have had lots of cores for quite some years. = Multicore ARMs are in all mid-to-high-end smartphones & tablet = computers. Can the NetBSD kernel use them all efficiently & effectively? Have the user land applications which can be parallelized been = parallelized? What is the current status of NetBSD SMP system support? Which kernel = subsystems still need work, and which are done? curious, Erik Fair
