AMD Zen 6 to Cram Up to 32 CPU Cores Per CCD

[ARF]

I know, but that doesn't change my point. It is slower after all (due to lower clockspeed).

There is some random process coming in asking for CPU time. How does the scheduler know whether to put it on full cores or c cores? It can't predict what the process will do. Or what the user's expectation is in that moment.

Err, the c-cores can be marked with lower clocks, and avoided by the pointers, unless needed otherwise.

"avoided by the pointers"? What is that supposed to mean?
