Reading the first article it made it sound at the end that it was more of an issue for cloud providers right? Or is the big concern the performance slapdown everyone is going to get?

Edit: so install your updates, life moves on as normal, everyone gets a slowdown, the base concept of how processors are built has to change. That’s gonna take a while.
