networked processors


I don't want to interrupt the little war going on in here, but I have a few questions to ask.  If you you don't like the MISC processor, or the MISC mailing list, or even the Forth language which is fundamental to the F21 instruction set, then don't subscribe to the MISC list.  It reminds me of christian newsgroups being 90% atheist and atheist newsgroups being 90% christian.  The only people being religious in here are the ones that don't belong here.

The F21 being such a small chip, I believe it's power is realized in *multiple* F21s being networked and treated as a single processor.  I know there are several topologies that could be used - token ring, parallel, star... what do you think should be used for the best performance gain?  What overhead is involved?
