What market is the mill aiming for? Servers, phones, desktop or all of the above?
- willvarfar 13y agoAll of the above! Its a family of processors, all compatible running the same binaries but each with the belt sizes, vector sizes, functional units and so on that suit it. So you'll get smaller Mills where that makes sense and absolute monsters in supercomputers, for example. When you think about the "smaller" Mill that you might have in your phone and tablet, though, its a monster compared to today's desktops! Except in the power efficiency department, that is ;)

- Symmetry 13y agoProbably a smaller market segment than any of those, since network effects are important. Maybe render farms or networking or top end embedded or such.
