> The goal should be, and is kind of what Larry Hastings is looking for, is that any program should run 8 times faster on a 8-core CPU compared to a 1-core.

A program that's inherently single-threaded it's unlikely to benefit from more CPUs. When you say "any program" here, you mean "any program with >=8 threads", right?
