 K900 | At Hydra scale the critical path finishes long before we're out of work in pretty much all cases | 17:17:07 |
| Sami Liedes | Right. That I can imagine (and is what I asked for :). So not building e.g. only a single architecture of a single channel helps presumably a lot. | 17:17:06 |
| Vladimír Čunát | No, that's not it. | 17:17:29 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Architectures mostly don't share hardware. | 17:17:45 |
| K900 | Hydra mostly always has overlapping loads | 17:17:56 |
