Bilow,

Rambus is always talking about high bandwidth memory use due to lots of applications running simultaneously.

This argument is largely bogus. If running two applications in parallel thrashes the cache and causes lots of DRAM accesses, it would be far more efficient to run the applications serially.

The total time required will be much less by running the apps one at a time. This is not possible for servers, but on the desktop is quite manageable.
