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. low-end Androids have finally caught up to the iPhone 5 from 2012. The Moto G4 , for example.

SQL 2016 – It Just Runs Faster: DBCC Scales 7x Better

SQL Server According to Bob

JUNE 3, 2016

Internally DBCC CHECK* uses a page scanning coordinator design (MultiObjectScanner.) SQL Server 2016 changes the internal design to (CheckScanner), applying no lock semantics and a design similar to those used with In-Memory Optimized (Hekaton) objects, allowing DBCC operations to scale far better than previous releases.

MariaDB vs MySQL: Key Differences and Use Cases

Percona

JUNE 4, 2023

Before we dive into the differences between MariaDB and MySQL, we will provide a thorough examination of each relational database management system (RDBMS). While originally designed to be a drop-in replacement for MySQL, it evolved into its own distinct database management system and is now maintained and supported by the MariaDB Foundation.
