Intel Xeon 6 6700E (Sierra Forest)
Efficiency-core Xeon 6, up to 144 E-cores per socket. Density rather than per-core throughput, aimed at scale-out rather than HPC nodes.
Why this part
All efficiency cores, no hyperthreading, no AVX-512. Sierra Forest is built for density in cloud infrastructure rather than for HPC, and it appears in this taxonomy because the line between the two has stopped being clean: the largest operators buying compute today are hyperscalers, and what they buy shapes what is available to everyone else.

“Units recorded” sums only the edges where a public source states a quantity. It is a floor, not a total, and should never be read as installed base.
