A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. This server is spending about a third of its CPU cycles just checking the time! What on Earth is Ubuntu doing that results in 30% higher CPU time!?

In the end, it’s not the load events or server response times that define the experience, but the perception of how snappy the interface feels. It used to provide an insight into how quickly the server outputs any data. This knowledge will give you the best optimization target for ongoing efforts. What does it mean?
