Nice thread, I like reading about these other processors. Shame most of them went the way of the dodo. I really liked the Ultra Sparc workstations with the Creator 3d cards when they came out, too bad they were so expensive.

I probably still have an old Sparcstation 5 (pizzabox) with a quad ethernet card that ran OpenBSD as a firewall. Rock solid machine at 110 or 70 Mhz.

Hasturtium posted:It'll be interesting to see how they perform. I do wonder how RISC-V will perform in non-testbed scenarios. To be honest, I think almost any CPU these days is fast enough to run a bureaucracy (office work and the like). I mean, if it is *that* important to run homegrown CPUs you could probably do some extra work on the software side as well.
