Means it will be a pain to make things 16 core, but if you pull it off it will be the equivalent of Skynet.

These are server processors, it's very easy to make server applications run on 16 cores (or N cores).

Got 16,000 visiting VGChartz at the same time? No problem, each core will deal with 1,000 since they're almost independent workloads.
