Scumbria - <I don't really think that it is a feature worth mentioning, outside of a technical conference. It sounds like marketing went fishing.

The folks at ISSC would be very interested to hear about the details of a 330 ps ALU, but it really has little bearing on overall CPU performance.>

I don't know if your assertion is correct or not.

Next step is to see some benchmarks. I have no idea when this will occur.

Thank you for taking the time to watch the demos.
