No uop cache is a very strange choice. They way they phrased it "we can meet our current performance goals without it in this generation" just sounds like they didn't manage to get it working in time.
- greggyb 7y agoThat seems to be a very pessimistic interpretation. Perhaps, they've been evaluating that as an architectural change, but recognize it would be a significant engineering effort. And they can already meet their current performance goals. Thus, they will wait until a future generation, when they cannot meet their future performance goals. In that future generation, they'll implement a uop cache.
