Hopefully, they will help flooding the world with _really_ performant RISC-V hardware for the desktops/servers/mobiles.

If RISC-V becomes a de-factor standard, we finally can start coding only in assembly and drop those abominations (the word is fair) which are today mainstream compilers (gcc/clang/etc).

mmmh.. I thing we miss optimized instructions to setup a small/big memcpy like now we have on latest x86_64 with the "rep *b" instructions.


And our compilers or jitters will produce much more optimised code.
