>> I believe I addressed the innate level of parallelism found in Transmeta's ISA, which is exploitable through CMS…

[from prior post]: the unfortunate end result is that ILP gains from ISA optimizations are limited. While no doubt greatly improved over an archaic legacy architecture such as x86, newer ISAs still have not been able to achieve 2x performance gains from doubling the execution width<<


It’s a matter of degree, of course. My point is that TMTA’s code-morphing software has more flexibility than an all-hardware solution when it comes to actually achieving the performance gains inherent in parallelism. Regards, Dew
