USENIX LISA2021 Computing Performance: On the Horizon

Brendan Gregg

I summarized these topics and more as a plenary conference talk, including my own predictions (as a senior performance engineer) for the future of computing performance, with a focus on back-end servers. I also wrote about these topics in detail for my recent [Systems Performance 2nd Edition] book. Ford, et al., “TCP

Deprecated features to take out of your toolbox – Part 1

SQL Performance

I would like to share a couple of recent examples that help illustrate how using deprecated SQL Server features continues to bite us. The system table sys.sysprocesses was replaced way back in SQL Server 2005 by a set of dynamic management views (DMVs), most notably sys.dm_exec_requests , sys.dm_exec_sessions , and sys.dm_exec_connections.

WAL Compression in PostgreSQL and Recent Improvements in Version 15

Percona

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. Zstd can provide the highest compression (30% more compared to lz4).
