Just a random thread about hyperthreading. Considering hyperthreading is a virtual thing, is 4x hyperthreading possible? So a dual core having 8 threads and an 8 core having 64 threads...

Moreover, why can't processors divide up their physical cores into virtual cores on the fly? So using no hyperthreading in single core apps but maybe going crazy and having 8x hyperthreading in... Whatever app needs 256 cores lol. Kinda like voltage and blk changes on the fly?
