Microsoft executives use Task Manager in 420 virtual Xeon processors to play Tetris

by ddos ·

Earlier on Twitter, a developer used the Windows 10 task manager to play a block pattern game. The principle is the different load of the CPU core in the task manager.

For example, after having 100 cores or virtualizing 100 cores, the load conditions of different cores can be used to make the task manager show different performance.

Obviously, if you want to use this gameplay, the CTO of Microsoft Azure can best show off his wealth. This executive virtualized 420 cores to play Tetris.

Mark Russinovich, the chief technology officer of Microsoft’s cloud computing services, calls a 24TB cloud node and then virtualizes 420 cores on the Xeon processor.

After virtualization, a large number of cores can be displayed in the task manager, and then the load conditions of different cores can be used to make the cores show different performance.

Russinovich’s gameplay is to use these cores to play Tetris games. Judging from the demo video, I have to say that the gameplay is quite good and very realistic.

Of course, this requires the help of tools provided by third-party developers to achieve ultra-fast scheduling of different cores, and the premise is that you have enough cores in your processors.
