I just find it amusing how confident Dew is that flyspeck TMTA will be able to generate
great code for an 8-way VLIW using on-the-fly profiling and binary recompilation of an
x86 image. Compare that with the moderate success HP and Intel have had generating
great code for a 6-way VLIW starting from program source code and enjoying basically
indefinite compile/optimization time and extensive run time profile information collected
from a heavily instrumented CPU.
