Here’s some predictions I’m making: Jack Dongarra’s efforts to highlight the low efficiency of the HPCG benchmark as an issue will influence the next generation of supercomputer architectures to optimize for sparse matrix computations. Next generation architectures will use CXL3.0 Next generation architectures will use CXL3.0

When designing an architecture, many components need to be considered before deciding on the best solution. In this context, features like filtering, firewalling, or caching are redundant and may consume resources that could be allocated to scaling. MySQL Router was never in the game.

The focus of most published research in architecture is on applications implemented in high-performance, “ close-to-the-metal” languages essentially developed before computers got fast. To be clear, these languages were not designed to be fast or space-efficient, but for ease of use. Are caches large enough for this code?

And while optimizing images is a must in any application, in the Jamstack ecosystem, it is even more paramount, considering that one of the main goals of the Jamstack architecture is to improve web performance. And you might ask, what do images have to do with this static site architecture? The change of design.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. The fastest Androids predictably remain 18-24 months behind, owing to cheapskate choices about cache sizing by Qualcomm, Samsung Semi, and all the rest. The Moto G4 , for example.

From Edge's telemetry, we see that nearly half of devices fall into our "low-end" designation, which means that they have: HDD s (not SSD s). These devices feature: Eight slow, big.LITTLE ARM cores (A75+A55, or A73+A53) built on last-generation processes with very little cache. 2-4 CPU cores. 4GB RAM or less. 4GiB of RAM.
