developers to make their apps multithreaded (the hard work) if they want the apps themselves to run faster. That, I'm afraid, isn't something we're going to be able to do exclusively in hardware.
I think the real gains will be as compilers start to learn to perform multithreaded optimizations (knowing that task X can be safely split, and that it is a benefit to do so, automatically dispatch task X to its own thread).
Auto-Vectorization/SIMD is already available in GCC and other compilers.
