Maybe not 10,000, but 1,000 yes.  The current CPUs are 90 nm or 65 nm
process nodes, and labs know how to scale down to 10 nm or so.  That's an
area density increase of 50 to 100.

Look at RAMP,
http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/BEARS/presentations/06Patterson.ppt a research
project to figure out how to efficiently build and program 1000-cpu small
systems.
