Now that would be interesting Eddie, with D-wave being in Canada also, it could all make sense, you never know.
Below is a quote from Perry on a Q&A session.
ASIC machines started with 28nm chips and at the time the GPU rigs were using them too. However, the S9’s were the big breakthrough, at 16nm. So you had the 16nm, then 14nm, and some people had the 12nm. The difference is when you get these newer chips they’re not optimized out of the factory. Typically that’s because of a rush to market for the new technology and therefore a lot of efficiency is found later on down the road. There are two ways to go about finding those efficiencies – one is to wait for the manufacturer to put out updates. The second is to look for it yourself. We’ve gone down the second road.
