2026-07-01 15:54:15 <iggy> aren't they generally in the same cpu?
2026-07-01 15:56:01 <iggy> is the idea that you compile math/vector heavy stuff with a100 and everything else with x100 and hope the scheduler is smart enough to put them on the right cores? Or maybe you pin processes to cores?
2026-07-01 16:24:16 <mps> afaik not for now. maybe in future kernel will be 'teached' to do this
2026-07-01 16:25:42 <mps> currently A100 cpus does nothing in kernel space
2026-07-01 16:26:56 <mps> but anyway K3 X100 is faster option in riscv ecosystem
