7. You are requested to parallelize an old program so that it could run faster on modern multicore processors. Please answer the following questions.

7.1 If your program can perform 90% of its work (measured as processor-seconds) in the parallel portion and 10% of its work in the serial portion. The parallel portion is perfectly parallelizable. What is the maximum speedup of the program if the multicore processor had an infinite number of cores?
