It's a low clocked (2.1GHz) dual-issue in-order core so obviously nowhere near the real-world performance of e.g. Zen5 which can retire multiple 256-bit or even 512-bit vector instructions per cycle at 5+ GHz.

But I find the RVV ISA just really fascinating. Grouping 8 1024-bit registers together gives us 8192-bit or 1-kilobyte registers! That's a tremendous amount of work that can be done using a single instruction.

Feels like the Lanz bulldog of CPUs. Not sure how practical it will be after all, but it's certainly interesting.
