I agree with the "less core but faster processors are what is most useful on desktops".
But I ask, has anyone one or any language made the number of processors/hyperthreads transparent? Ideally I would just create a thread and some load balancing system would distribute it to the correct processor. Am I just behind the times?
- virmundi 10y agoOn a small number of cores Erlang does this. That's why actors can be in the thousands and still performant.

- toyg 10y agoUh, that's what happens...? In Windows 2012, the new feature is actually that you can explicitly stop the OS doing that, by forcing specific processes to specific cores only. The issue people have, usually, is about which process should have priority when (inevitably) more than one are competing for the same processor -- a question that has different answers depending on your particular type of workload.
