The 6600 had several I/O processors with a 12-bit word length that were
really one processor, basicallty using SMT.
Originally these “PPUs” (“Peripheral Processor Units”) were for running
the OS, while the main CPU was primarily dedicated to running user
programs.
Aparently this idea did not work out so well, and in later versions of the
OS, more code ran on the CPU instead of the PPUs.
