USENIX SREcon APAC 2022: Computing Performance: What's on the Horizon

Brendan Gregg

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory. Ford, et al., “TCP

The Best Way to Host MongoDB on DigitalOcean

Scalegrid

We ran performance tests for MongoDB on DigitalOcean vs. AWS vs. Azure and found that DigitalOcean performance was in line with, if not better, on both high throughput and low latency in the deployment. DigitalOcean Droplets. The most basic Droplet is their Standard instance which uses shared CPU starting at just $5/month.

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2021

Alex Russell

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. The Moto G4 , for example. twitter.com/slightlylate/status/1139684093602349056 455 06:18 AM · Feb 28, 2020.
