John,  the article mentions the relationship between hardware
performance and compiler design.
Assuming that the two options mentioned in the article are true, what
would that change for your compilers?
The author writes: "Itanium relies on compilers to aggressively
schedule instructions for parallel execution into bundles."
What does "...aggressivively schedule..." mean in terms of compiler
design ?
