What about multiple processors sharing the same memory to amortize the memory electrical cost?

If they share the same memory bank then they likely cause more row switches and there is negligible amortization.

The GPU uses some coalescing to minimize latency and maximize utilization of memory bandwidth. Isn't that likely to merge accesses and thus amortize?

Excuse me we are getting in area of hardware that I am not well researched.
