SQL Server According to Bob

SEPTEMBER 26, 2016

Our customers who deployed Availability Groups were now using servers for primary and secondary replicas with 12+ core sockets and flash storage SSD arrays providing microsecond to low millisecond latencies. However, if you are looking to accelerate your hardware, our Always On Availability Group design for SQL Server 2016 can keep pace.

This was a keynote presentation at the “2nd International Workshop on Performance Modeling: Methods and Applications” (PMMA16), June 23, 2016, Frankfurt, Germany (in conjunction with ISC16 ). Building separate models for each of the benchmarks was required to get the correct asymptotic properties.

Some of the built-in features ( wal_compression ) have been there since 2016, and almost all backup tools do the WAL compression before taking it to the backup repository. Individual processes generate WAL records, and latency is very crucial for transactions. But this comes with a considerable performance implication.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency. Who owns this code?

Google’s industry benchmarks from 2018 also provide a striking breakdown of how each second of loading affects bounce rates. The code for the site is available on GitHub for reference. I’m going to update my referenced URL to the new site to help decrease latency that adds drag to the initial page load.

Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. For this page to be done loading it needs to be responsive to user input — the “interactive” in “Time to Interactive” Browsers process user input by generating DOM events that application code listens to. Execute the script. Global Ground-Truth.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. All modern browsers are fast, Chromium and Safari/WebKit included. Offscreen Canvas.
