    No real overlap with Cerebras. Have tons of respect for what they do and achieve, but unrelated arch / approach / target-customers.

    Not really. I work for NextSilicon. It's a data-flow oriented design. We will eventually have more details available that gradually explain this.

    Thank you for writing the obvious. Instruction Byte count is the wrong metric here 100%. Instruction Count (given reasonable decoding/timing constraints) is the thing to optimize f…

    What a load of crap... you just wasted 2gb of address space not of DRAM... You'll "waste" exactly up to the amount of stack each thread uses, rounded up to PAGE_SIZE which is usual…
