China's Alibaba is making a 16-core, 2.5 GHz RISC-V processor
Xuantie 910.
The Xuantie, or XT for short, is said to be the most powerful RISC-V processor yet. Based on a 12nm process, it features 16 cores operating at 2.5 GHz, supports 64-bit processing, compact 16-bit instructions, and in-development vector operations. More importantly, however, it is very good at out-of-order operations, which is something RISC-V processors have struggled with. Intriguingly, the processor also supports 50 extra instructions on top of the standard 32.
At Alibaba’s Cloud Summit presentation, they revealed the processor achieves a CoreMark score of 7.1/MHz, while the nearest competitor, SiFive’s U74, reaches just 5.1/MHz. If a manufacturer’s testing is to be believed, that’s a 40% performance increase.
