Hello folks!
Sun alum, and now Intel VP, Bev Crair was talking about 3d XPOINT, and showed
it in a DIMM:

Are we at the stage of persistent core memory? Do we need to reimagine our
world for this possibility? Do we imagine a mixed world where some memory is
non-volatile and some isn't?
This list covers multiple operating systems (illumos, FreeBSD, Linux, more?),
so I hope your respective OS communities are at least acknowledging this
possibility. I've sent a mail similar to this to illumos already (so apologies
to illumos members of this list for the redundancy).
Sorry for not digging more deeply up front into these, but it's something we're
likely to contend with in the next decade, and I wanted to at least mention
this to folks here.
Thanks,
Dan
