Servethehome had a great take on these accelerators on Sapphire Rapids and the general approach. tl,dr: AMD might beat them at this game, their accelerators will be spread over the whole spectrum of CPUs (and not just the server parts or worse, even specific server parts and thus hampering adoption), making it a larger target for software developers to care about to make use of them eventually. Let's wait and see if Intel will be more clever over time and spread some of these accelerators down their whole CPU product stack in the future.

Cool feature, and zstd in the browser is finally moving in all three significant upstreams. gzip is mostly fine, but zstd has an advantage in decompression speed and compression rate at the same time, so I think it is well suited as a transfer encoding in web applications.

If what you really want is all the bells and whistles at a cheaper price point, well, be explicit (and be prepared to be disappointed). I am still waiting for a Ferrari SF90 for $30K.

As far as I know. you can choose to select the top end processors if you want the top end feature sets.

It basically seemed like they made custom chips with the specific features various big customers wanted to ship and then labeled them as a coherent product line.
