Linux-ready networking SoCs scale to 40 cores

| Netronome announced new multi-core "network flow processors" that are
| backward-compatible with Intel's IXP28xx, but claimed to offer over twice the
| MIPS. The Linux-compatible NFP-32xx system-on-chips scale from 16 to 40
| cores, offer 20Gbps throughput, and provide a programmable dataplane,
| virtualization, and security processing, says the company.

| Another significant failure point that rears its head with large clusters is
| job management. If the scheduler crashes, or has difficulties managing the
| number of jobs, then the cluster will not be able to run effectively. For
| instance, in our hypothetical 25,000 node cluster, there would be 200,000
| cores.

| Go[t] that? 10,000 core processors running GNU/Linux at the heart of Yahoo.
