More of these would be immensely helpful, right about now given the inference landscape.

CXMT was hindered by various sanctions and lawsuits for the "allegedly" stolen IP. Intel can cleanly partner with Micron like they did for their Optane line (which btw can also offload a lot of the demand via CXL DIMMs).
They also don't have to match Micron, they just need to introduce sufficient marginal supply to a supply constrained market or use it to their advantage by making the memory for their own platforms by-passing the shortage everyone else has to contend with.

The upcoming cards for local inference use LPDDR (which is also not immune to the shortage) - but maybe it's time Intel gets back to its roots and produce some memory chips. CXL Optane would also shine as a KV cache store.

btw, slicers turn the STL into g-code for the printer before you hit print. STL is just easier to work with for the transformations that need to happen within slicer software.

That really doesn't make sense because your system is already using memory that needs to be physically contiguous but mapped virtually. Also, would you say pinned memory is not part of the virtual memory system??
You're only restricted by the fragmentation of the system memory which is an issue yes, but it's dealt with in other ways.
Re:Samsung's Processing-in-Memory (PIM)
on Saturday August 29, 2026 @02:29PM (#49492130)
why would it? the parent OS can already handle physically contiguous allocations so these should be no different (with the exception that a separate interface can be used to do compute over these buffers/pages).

And if not, would you consider a raspberry pi a computer? or your iphone a computer?

AFAIK, thunderbolt cables are also copper - so what trickery do they use for supporting USB4-80? i believe both connectors use differential pair wires for signalling.

Half life alyx and their push for openVR has made a big impact in that part of the gaming world.
But yeah, their games are just as filled with lootbox, crates, skin garbage as other low effort money grabs; saving grace being its all cosmetics only (and they’re private about their financials).

ordering lock acquisition is a tested strategy to avoid deadlocks; so locking the cache lines sorted by PA would cover that?

They’re used by the internal register renamer/allocator so if it sees you’re storing the results to memory then reusing the named register for a new result - it will allocate a new physical register so your instruction doesn’t stall for the previous write to go through.

but the website and web renderer are definitely not optimized for a netbook from 2010 - even modern smartphones are better at rendering pages and video than your atom (or even 8350u) computers.
