Nothing here that can't be found in recent releases from Cavium, Broadcom and AMD.

That's why the NDA is so frustrating; we can't talk re the fun features and demos.. I know the AMD and Cavium parts rather well also. The Amd one doesn't support what I have in mind. The Cavium does on paper but the cores, even with just public info, can be seen to be underwhelming. Typical network processor style, which struggles with other workloads. Unfortunately for them, they picked up a couple of the less clued in Calxeda execs that don't understand SW or workloads very well.
