Intel's flagship 128-core Xeon 6980P 'Granite Rapids' processor costs $17,800, making it the company's most expensive standard CPU ever. By contrast, AMD's most expensive 96-core EPYC 6979P processor costs $11,805.

Jesus Christ when did we break 20 cores?

CPUs have multiple cores now? Amazing.

I remember reading columns saying soon, when multiple cores become common, compilers will thread your program for you...

We were taught about OpenMP in like 2012 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenMP

Intel's TBB was also used some, but not as frequently https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threading_Building_Blocks
