It seems like you would beat the memory wall.
I don't know what this is supposed to mean.
Why would putting coprocessing somewhere outside of the CPU be better than just sending data to storage?
- gdiamos 2y agoIt takes a lot of energy to move data
- CyberDildonics 2y agoSays who? Also wouldn't this idea just be moving data before it's fully processed? Why wouldn't the intermediate data be bigger? Also "a lot" isn't a number and what are you comparing it to?
- gdiamos 2y agoSays the hotchips keynote - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsxCZAE8QNA&t=2480s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsxCZAE8QNA&t=2480s - data that is moved is about 100x higher power than data that is local You have a good point about intermediate data. This would not apply to all algorithms.
- CyberDildonics 2y agoYou're talking about processing data, then moving data and processing it somewhere else, which is the opposite of the locality that presentation is saying valuable.
