Re:What Challenges and Trade-Offs Do Optimising Compilers Face? by mpweiher on Thursday June 22, 2017 @12:05PM (#14613192)
Not just that, for many, many applications these days, latency and predictability are more important than throughput.

And throughput is actually easier (see: Latency Lags Bandwidth). So we're often/usually getting help with the less important problem that's easier to solve, while at the same time making the more important and harder problems more difficult.

YMMV.
