gollark: Only Turing and later have good enough on-chip processors to use it, apparently.
gollark: nvidia-open is quite funny, since they just moved all of the proprietary stuff to a giant tens-of-megabytes firmware blob.
gollark: I think we still just run on L1/2/3 caches, occasionally L4 things, then RAM, and possibly persistent-memory DIMMs or really fast NVMe disks.
