    Bugfixes and possible performance improvements. What exactly is kept secret, but both Intel and AMD come with a steady stream of updates for their microcode, for the life of a cpu.
    Alright, much appreciated you bothered to answer with that information.

    This is disturbing. I don't like code what is kept secret, even though I would not understand a bit of the said code if it would be human readable.
