Re: MAME (and everything else) about to slow down...

From what I'm reading, Intel CPUs starting with Haswell have PCID and INVPCID instructions which reduce the performance hit from the "fix".

Ebay is about to get flooded with old pre-Haswell CPUs.

I also recall reading somewhere that programs with a lot of I/O (like compiling) are impacted much more by the fix.
