While it sounds promising, I'm going to wait for some additional benchmarks and real world usage scenarios; factors like cooling, multi-process work, and of course suboptimal applications (browsers, Electron apps, stuff compiled for Intel) will be a big factor as well.

That said, it's promising and I'm really curious to see where this development will lead to in a few years' time.



> Electron apps

iOS/iPhones/iPads already smoke every other device in running javascript. Apple Silicon may end up being the best thing to ever happen for Electron apps.


Me too - let's see what the sustained performance is like. That said, with this much headroom, I'm cautiously optimistic that even with some throttling going on, it'll still be plenty fast for anything I'm likely to throw at it.
