Ali,

if there is a gap in the traffic lane, the Porsche
has better chance to fill the gap and outpace the
WV-bus. This is not about engineering, this is
about "sport" - who is first.

I agree. The problem I have with complex design, is the effect on clock speed. Why does the 21264 run at a lower clock speed than the 21164? CPU architects should be thinking about cycle time above all else. It is not very glamorous, but it sells parts.
