Modern accelerators like Blackwell GPUs continue the trend of asymmetric hardware scaling, where tensor core throughput grows far faster than other resources such as shared memory bandwidth, special function units (SFUs) for transcendental operations like exponential, and general-purpose integer and floating-point ALUs. From the Hopper H100 to the Blackwell B200, for instance, BF16 tensor core throughput increases from 1 to 2.25 PFLOPs, while both the SFU count and shared memory bandwidth remains unchanged.
