The i860's VLIW mode was used extensively in embedded DSP applications since the application execution and datasets were simple, well ordered and predictable, allowing the designer to take full advantage of the parallel execution advantages that VLIW lent itself to ; in VLIW mode the i860 was able to maintain floating-point performance in the range of 20-40 double-precision MFLOPS ( an extremely high figure for its time and for a processor operating at 25-50Mhz ).
