Hm. Not sure what exactly You mean. Also not sure /since when/ this
would apply, or to /which series/ of these cores. But I would think they
are indeed for beating the crap of every core simulatneously, over
days. And in my perception the main issue with this is where to move
the thermal.
But then also, I am using Xeon EP (and rather old ones, for that) -
and if these are not designed to do exactly that, then I really don't
know...

BTW, I am missing the 2025Q1 - they tend to get later and later. And
that is an issue here, because rebuilding yields me some 15 kWh
thermal in my hall, and I need some planning to cater for these.

cheerio,
PMc
