OK, I know asking is very easy, but maybe the problems I found may help for something.
Yes, double-precision is something that I think would be great to have for scientific computing and supercomputing.
My objective was using the Parallella as a cluster for HPC, and trying to find out the problems that I would have.
More or less, I could get around the memory and badwidth limitations, but when I had a relatively reasonable version of my program in single-precision, I decided to change to double precision (which is the standard for Linpack, if I'm not wrong). The loss of performance in that case was worse than the previous problems, and more difficult to "get around" by ingenious means...
I hope that is not impossible or too "cost-inefficient"... sorry if this has already been discussed (I searched for "double" here and didn't find a topic for this).
