Freescale's QorIQ Adds Threads

摘要

Multithreaded processors are becoming commonplace, but scaling multithread performance at a near linear rate remains a challenge. Preliminary benchmarks suggest that Freescale's first multithreaded processors are scaling better than most others and may achieve the highest-ever EEMBC CoreMark score. Although Cavium offers more CPU cores and NetLogic more threads, Freescale's new QorIQ T-series AMP processors are a significant advance for the company whose communications processors outsell all others.
