Hardware virtualization for cloud computing has come a long way, improving performance using technologies such as VT-x, SR-IOV, VT-d, NVMe, and APICv. The latest AWS hypervisor, Nitro, uses everything to provide a new hardware-assisted hypervisor that is easy to use and has near bare-metal performance. I'd expect between 0.1%

I wrote a blog about it years ago too, however as time has marched on, guidance has changed a bit. Jonathan Kehayias has written an blog post How much memory does my SQL Server actually need , with a formula that helps establish the baseline for the maximum memory value. SQL Server 2016 introduced soft-NUMA nodes.

LTS (April 2016). I wrote about it in a previous post, [DTrace for Linux 2016]. I wrote a page on it: [perf]. - **eBPF**: tracing features completed in 2016, this provides efficient programmatic tracing to existing kernel frameworks. The hardest part on Linux is now done: kernel support. It's the official profiler.
