Supercomputing Predictions: Custom CPUs, CXL3.0, and Petalith Architectures

Adrian Cockcroft

Here’s some predictions I’m making: Jack Dongarra’s efforts to highlight the low efficiency of the HPCG benchmark as an issue will influence the next generation of supercomputer architectures to optimize for sparse matrix computations. Jack Dongarra talked about the scores, and pointed out the low efficiency on some important workloads.

Fast key-value stores: an idea whose time has come and gone

The Morning Paper

In ProtoCache (a component of a widely used Google application), 27% of its latency when using a traditional S+RInK design came from marshalling/un-marshalling. Yes, a bit like those 2nd-level caches we were talking about earlier, e.g. Ehcache from 2003 onwards. What have the authors got against this combination? Who knew! ;).
