Among the many aspects of the subject that Jobson covers are CISC vs. RISC, a glance at Moore's Law, multi-threading and scalability, CPUs and memory (including chip multi-threading, and cache size), choosing the best CPU for a particular workload, the Niagara 2 processor, Solaris OS kernel metrics and CPU-related performance, an explanation of benchmarks, and some concluding remarks on Sun benchmarks and comparative methodology.
