Over the last decade, flagship processors from Intel and AMD have been eking out only marginal cross-generational single threaded (ST) performance gains. Instead, the focus has been on boosting aggregate performance by increasing core count. The coupling of these two factors have led to the aforementioned stagnation of ST performance.
