Didn't we already know this? The ARM chip is supposed to be an hypervisor. I recall reading about this on TPU about two months ago... maybe at Tom's?

post 2 and 6 in that thread have good explanations on why gpus suck at branching

wikipedia "branch prediction" should have some good info on the complexities and what cpu makers have been doing to improve it
I hope the upcoming 7.1 Billion transistor Behemoth from Nvidia improves the branching abilities of GPGPUs.

Interesting... Do any of you remember the "leaked" xbox 720 papers from some months ago? Where it described microsofts vision for the next xbox.
It had just a few possible technical specs, but the interesting was it would have an arm based co-cpu for running the OS, and leverage the big cpu to do all the grunt work when gaming etc.

Looks like we are seeing the beginnings of a new trend.
