SpaghettiCthulu|5 months ago From TFA:> The primary use case in mind for parker is on the machines with high core counts, where scalability concerns may arise. Once started, there is no communication between kernel instances. In other words, they share nothing thus improve scalability. load replies (1) cyrc|5 months ago Think it can be used for lockstep computing.Also seems to be a way to bring microkernel benefit to Linux. Isolate system services.
