I wonder if they could just take the network processing circuitry from
the IXP2800 (an extra 16-core (!) RISCy processor on-die, dedicated to
doing just network stuff, and a 10gbps pipe going straight into the CPU
itself) and graft it onto the Xeon.
Now _that_ would be something worth experiencing.
