Sounds like fun! I guess it is possible to play with ADX (multi 
precision integers) that came with Broadwell using SDE as well.

Seems like Intel is investing heavily into support high level 
features in hardware. I assume this is to keep JVM/CIL oriented 
CPUs from taking their markets and raising the bar for AMD. Maybe 
we will see Intel pushing for more and more advanced hardware 
features in the coming years. Could be interesting.
