 | | Benchmark scores for Crusoe are generally lower than for comparable AMD or Intel processors, but it may be that the subjective user experience of Crusoe performance is 'good enough', particularly in the small mobile computers ("subnotebooks") in which Crusoe has been most widely used. | | | Crusoe performs in software some of the functionality traditionally implemented in hardware (e.g. | | | For example Efficeon, the second-generation Crusoe, has a 256-bit-wide VLIW core versus 128-bit in the first generation. |
