to me this behaviour is aligned with other industries China's been involved in. take solar or EVs as examples. the dumping and involution involved in these industries is apparent and has been disrupting for the external markets affecte

the title is doing the heavy lifting here. the paper discusses how they apply an existing standard (CXL), to provide an intermediate memory tier in a niche use case: > Each MemServer combines 768 GB of DDR5 memory alongside 256 GB of DDR
