Step 1: Buy lots of raspberry pis.
Step 2: Run 1 process per pi.
Step 3: Enjoy freedom from spectre-related problems!
Optional step 4: Move everything back to Intel/AMD when management realizes why they went for multiple processes per box in the first place. Money rules everything around us.
- Symmetry 6y agoIf I'm willing to give up long pipelines and out of order execution for security I'd at least go for a Project Denver chip or something. No need to give up all the single thread performance, or multiple cores sharing a memory pool. Or more likely a chip with a ton of ARM A5* cores on it due to availability. EDIT: Wait, it looks like I could actually get a Drive AGX for $700 on Newegg[1] and they seem to have about 40% the single thread performance of a Ryzen[2]. So actually not out of the question if I was willing to give up more for security than I actually am.
