It's an exciting time for developments in computer performance, not just for the BPF technology (which I often [write about]) but also for processors with 3D stacking and cloud vendor CPUs (e.g., This was a chance to talk about other things I've been working on, such as the present and future of hardware performance.

As a Xen guest, this profile was gathered using perf(1) and the kernel's software cpu-clock soft interrupts, not the hardware NMI. Measuring the speed of time Is there already a microbenchmark for os::javaTimeMillis()? We ended up setting it in the BaseAMI for all cloud services. But I'm not completely sure.
