Legacy, but how many devices do you think are still functioning with them now? How many are sitting on store shelves?
I wonder if the Google Home next to me is aarch64. The "new" router that is sending my packets to this site is MIPS on an even more ancient software stack.
- segfaultbuserr 6y agoThis doesn't change my argument. Legacy can be interpreted as something that will be phased out in the future, but if you want, you can also think of it as the established status quo, which is hard to change. Whether the compressing scheme should be removed is of no interests - if it's not broken, don't fix it, just keep it as is. If a new ARM32 system is to be designed, it's likely that the earlier limitations such as Flash space is still a factor, so the compression is here to stay.
