> Moore’s law is far from over and multithreading is not the answer.

Wut? We hit the power wall back in 2004. There was a little bit of optimization around the memory wall and ilp wall afterwards, but really, cores haven't gotten faster since.

It's been all about being able to cram more cores in since then, which implies at least multi-threading, but multi-processing is basically required to get the most out of a cpu these days.
