@PatrickMoorhead No one is saying you need 8 cores…

@PatrickMoorhead No one is saying you need 8 cores for apps that use 100% CPU load, it is about power. More cores=more choice for workload.

@Gadgetoid I get what you are saying, I think the problem is that many people are taking it seriously and don’t see it for what it is.

@Gadgetoid Then you should read my rebuttal for exactly that reason. goo.gl/ZCfSsg

@PatrickMoorhead How do u measure that? I have spoken to the IPA scheduler engineers & they have set aims,which might be different to yours.

@PatrickMoorhead Not really an issue, I would bet that the IPA scheduler knows much better which tasks should run on which cores than a dev.
