I write low level code. I need to profile it. It's enough pain to try to understand performance in the turbo boost model. Then Intel was adding avx512 throttling. Now the P vs E cores and some P cores having different max ghz from others.
AMD adds its own set of problems with the slower (ghz) CCD with x3d.
As a developer I don't mind the P/E on my laptop. I actually enjoy the apple silicon version of it. On a desktop though, where cooling and power are not a problem, I would strongly prefer a uniform, predictable architecture.
