The obvious answer would be adding more CPU cores and surrounding circuitry. Especially on mobile it probably also makes a lot of sense to move more algorithms

- DasIch 10y agoI don't think AES or video decoding uses coprocessors or FPGAs, that's just implemented more or less like any other instruction. If you're going complete coprocessor, you can do much more like Apple has done with their motion coprocessors or the secure enclave.
