I'm not sure what the cores actually are, but the PEZY chips have 1024 and 2048 cores, end Epiphany V taped out at 1024. There are others, at least Kalray and Sunway (Taihulight), with 256 cores. They may not be sufficiently general-purpose -- Taihulight is imbalanced against memory bandwidth -- but can clearly do well on the right sort of problem.
- 00_NOP 7y agoEpiphany did indeed tape out at 1024 - which is why there is the acknowledgement that large scale manufacture of such chips is probably perfectly possible. But Epiphany never went to manufacture, which is sort of the point here.
