> even such an unusually fast RISC-V core has 10 years of handicap to recover until being able to match modern CPU core Yes. But why do you say this as if it's news, or even bad news? Two years ago the best RISC-V core in the market had 30 years of handicap to x86/PowerPC in IPC. Catching up by 20 years in 2 years is pretty impressive, don't you think? Parity is coming well before 2030, even allowing for x86 advances in that time.
