Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2015 07:40:01 +0000 From: Gregory Maxwell <gmaxwell@...il.com> To: discussions@...sword-hashing.net Subject: Intel/Micron "3D Xpoint" I'm surprised to have not seen any analysis about what (if any) the newly announced Xpoint tech may have on PHC contestants and their assumptions: http://newsroom.intel.com/community/intel_newsroom/blog/2015/07/28/intel-and-micron-produce-breakthrough-memory-technology It seems a little too sparse and marketing to reason too concretely. Prior to the announcement I'd been privately told that it would be "faster than current SDRAM" and "denser and cheaper than many SSDs". The fact sheet is worth a giggle: http://www.intel.com/newsroom/kits/nvm/3dxpoint/pdfs/NextGen_NVM_FunFacts.pdf Micron's part of the announcement also links to their publications on about massively parallel compute devices integrated on die as pipeline processors. There is even a seperate application section on cryptanalysis: http://www.micronautomata.com/signal_intelligence
