The Esperanto system with lots of RISC-V cores is built with localized memory for small clusters of cores. It is programmed akin to a graphics card and plenty of workloads are done on graphics cards. That means it screams on machine learning, crypto, scientific computing and many other number crunching tasks. Sure it will not make your MS Word run 1 million times faster but who needs that?
