Scatter/gather capabilities allow more efficient memory to disk transfers reducing redundant memory copies, sorting and other activities applications may require to gain improved I/O performance. On Linux the total number of buffers that can be read or written, in a single ABI request, is capped at 2048.

Implementing table-level encryption may require additional resources and impact performance, so carefully evaluating the trade-offs between security and performance is essential. This allows for more granular control over data access and improves performance because only the necessary columns are decrypted when querying data.

Reference tables can be replicated to all nodes for joins and foreign keys from distributed tables and for maximum read performance. Depending on the configuration, one can tune a hardware RAID for either performance or redundancy. The same can be said for Citus data sharding. The colors indicate duplicated shards of the table.

To ensure the features run uniformly across various browsers and OS versions that our users have, we should perform multi-browser testing. You can also check out our post on the most common issues one can face while performing browser compatibility tests. Let us understand the importance of multi-browser testing before we proceed.

bpftrace is a new open source tracer for Linux for analyzing production performance problems and troubleshooting software. Linux already has many performance tools, but these are often counter-based and have limited visibility.

We didn’t change any code, or even make any web performance tweaks - we made the switch and noticed the results immediately. If too many requests are made, it can negatively affect the performance of your web page due to the fact that HTTP/1.1 A lot of the web performance hacks that we currently use are no longer needed!
