yeah, that's further parts of the reason why i prefer the AMD Zen architecture, because they have simplified the units so much they are literally little sub-dies across the chip instead of a complex whole design as is the norm with intel's engineering

the trend is towards more parallelisation, this helps with latency as well (lower distances of travel) and simplifies manufacturing (less risk of errors in the design due to a simpler design)

as we have seen also, where for a long time intel, notably with the Atom, was getting a better watt/compute ratio 10 years ago, this is now moving in favor of the simplified, parallel architecture of the Zen chips, and i expect the same trend is happening with ARM and MIPS processors as well, with their lower overall engineering budgets versus intel

the difference between SIMD performance on wide bit sizes is phenomenal, i am hoping that some day soon someone makes an secp256k1 signature function in AVX
