        1. Interestingly, Intel has decided to group IPC into different classes, since IPC in one action is not IPC in another. I'd say its pretty smart for them to do that. It also confirms what @Underfox3 said about the relative performance and efficiency of the cores. @davideneco25320/1429809200130109443

        Sometimes Gracemont might be more performant and Golden Cove might be more efficient, and the scheduler needs to be able to adapt for those scenarios. @Underfox3/1428898427090440192?s=20

      Thread Director records the efficiency and performance of cores and writes them to a table. The OS scheduler then reads that table and schedules tasks such that the most performant or efficient core is used, depending on the scenario.

    At the same time, Thread Director also tells the OS scheduler how it prefers the tasks to be scheduled, considering both efficiency and performance.
