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

Poor Disk Performance

Brendan Gregg

Something like: It's called "[flying height]" or "fly height," and (from that reference) was about 5 nanometers for 2011 drives. From these outputs I try to determine if the problem is: - **The workload**: High-latency disk I/O is commonly caused by the workload applied. Note the sdb latencies range from 32 ms to over 2 seconds!
