Intel on Tuesday announced the ultra core-count (UCC) variant of its "Granite Rapids" server processor microarchitecture, with the introduction of new Xeon 6 series SKUs with P-core counts as high as 128-core/256-thread per socket. "Granite Rapids" microarchitecture uses "Redwood Cove" performance cores. These are newer than the "Raptor Cove" cores powering "Sapphire Rapids," and a client version of these cores power the Core Ultra 1-series "Meteor Lake" processors. The server version of "Redwood Cove" comes with 112 KB of L1 cache (64 KB L1I and 48 KB L1D), and 2 MB of dedicated L2 cache. The server version of "Redwood Cove" is optimized for the mesh interconnect core layout on the three compute tiles making up "Granite Rapids-UCC," each core comes with a 3.93 MB segment of the tile's 168 MB shared L3 cache.
