The Surprising Effectiveness of Non-Overlapping, Sensitivity-Based Performance Models

John McCalpin

The presentation discusses a family of simple performance models that I developed over the last 20 years — originally in support of processor and system design at SGI (1996-1999), IBM (1999-2005), and AMD (2006-2008), but more recently in support of system procurements at The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) (2009-present).

Electricity used by servers doubled between 2000 and 2005 (and has continued growing ever since) from 12 billion to 23 billion kilowatt hours. Without effective caching on the client, the server will see an increase in workload, more CPU usage and ultimately increased latency for the end user.
