ACM paper: CPU is the new bottleneck
From Jan 2016: https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2874238 For the entire careers of most practicing computer scientists, a fundamental observation has consistently held true: CPUs are significantly more performant and more expensive than I/O devices. The fact that CPUs can process data at ex
