People have made really fast implementations of RISC-V and universally praised it as being very nice.
And that a ISA that is that knew doesn't have of the shelf server, has nothing to do with the problems of the ISA but rather making mass-market produces for new ISA is incredibly difficult.
RISC-V has barley out of the lab for a couple years and the growth of software and hardware has been impressive so far. Saying it is 'all hype' is serious nonsense and speaks more about your expectations then RISC-V-
- Annatar 7y agoI should hope it speaks of my expectations: can't run server workloads on it, worse to program for than OpenSPARC or M68000. I actually want a nice processor and server hardware to use it in to do work. RISC-V ISA and the hardware around it provide neither and yet here we are, it's constantly being paraded as the non-plus-ultra of central processing units.
