Can you do something useful on this chip? It seems to me that while the total number of instructions looks good, what can actually be accomplished per instruction is very bad. Not only do the instructions operate on very small words, you need a ton of communication between the cores to do anything. E.g. how fast would this thing realistically be for (integer -- it doesn't even have floating point) matrix multiplication?
