The techradar article is terrible, the techcrunch article is better, the Flow website has some detail.

But overall I have to say I don't believe them. You can't just make threads independent if they logically have dependencies. Or just remove cache coherency latency by removing caches.
- Can't have cache latency if there is no cache!
  
  So THIS is what the communists were talking about when they told me about the benefits of transitioning to a cacheless society!
