Thanks. I read those blog posts in the past but had missed that one. So when a company advertises last years device can do 1 teraflop and this years device can do 2 teraflops that doesn't mean twice as fast or twice as many FPS? It's only twice as fast if they are doing the same exact operation as the first test (like only adds or only multiply operations)?
