After an initial military response, take their time and specifically plan and target the terrorists who were responsible and organized the attacks on the 7.10. Yeah this will obviously take way longer and is harder than levelling Gaza but w

Interestingly even software (oneDNN) that is using Intel's brand new OneAPI is running excellent one Zen 4 CPUs, often faster than on Intel's own CPUs: https://www.phoronix.com/review/amd-ryzen-7900x-7950x-lin

Yeah, I can feel your pain. We deployed a fully virtualized HPC cluster on top of OpenStack and there was a fair amount of testing and playing with knobs (SRIOV, Jumbo frames, CPU pinning, etc) to get close to bare metal performance on a 10
