Ideally this will be a problem solved by Operating System developers, perhaps as time progresses and we know what operating systems are still affected we could make sure that witnesses aren't running these versions on private hardware. Patches will hopefully go out & VPS providers will deal with the performance reductions themselves?

It is pretty crazy though for sure, intel's in trouble..

How can this very serious failure of Intel affect the operation of the nodes and witnesses of bitshares?

Is there a protocol in place to solve it?
