> Why give up on performance? We don't need to give up on performance, even with low-performance RISC-V chips. What we need is a new architecture which takes advantage of low-speed multicore processors. If it is possible to produce thousand-core RISC-V chips [1] then any core could be assigned a single thread - which implies that there is no need for a complex multitasking OS.
