Every silicon vendor at every keynote this year has said some version of the same sentence: the next CPU generation will be built for agentic workloads. Intel talked about CPUs as the orchestration layer for agentic systems, Arm argued that agents are driving a fresh wave of data centre CPU demand, and NVIDIA introduced Vera as a CPU designed for agentic workflows rather than general-purpose compute. The direction is settled. The definition is not. Because here is the questio

We recently worked on extending Intel Perfspect (https://github.com/Whileone-Techsoft/PerfSpect/tree/Neoverse-native-support), a robust, command-line performance analysis tool that implements the Top-Down Microarchitecture Analysis Method (TMAM). It fully supports the Arm Neoverse-V2 architectures. This project required mapping the Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) events on the ARM cores to the metrics of TMAM methodology. We can now get the Level 1 breakdown (Frontend Bound
