*To patch, or not to patch, that is the question:* Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The loops and branches of speculative execution, Or to take arms against a sea of exploits And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep, No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That HPC is heir to: 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep
