Awesome -- I've started fuzzing on the ADL (with the big.LITTLE PMU
setup) and I've had it run on my very aged IVB-EP machine. Both so far
(knock on wood) with no issues.

The most modern AMD machine I have at hand is a 2 socket Interlagos, and
I doubt anybody really much cares about that these days -- but I can run
it for giggles.
