The use case is the TPC-C benchmark but executed not on a high-end server but on a lower-spec virtual machine that is I/O limited like for example, with AWS EBS volumes. I wanted most of the memory to be available for the file cache, where the compressed SST files will be cached. MyRocks Vs InnoDB.

An open-source benchmark suite for microservices and their hardware-software implications for cloud & edge systems Gan et al., It’s a pretty impressive effort to pull together and make available in open source (not yet available as I write this) such a suite, and I’m sure explains much of the long list of 24 authors on this paper.

Par t of the appeal of Python is that there is a vast array of libraries available for it; when these are written in C, they can go a long way to alleviating Python’s performance problems. I suggest it’s long past time to move beyond C and SPEC benchmarks and our exclusive focus on “metal” languages.

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. In early January a related paper was published by Satoshi Matsuoka et. petaflops, which is 0.8%

This post mines publicly available data on the pace of compatibility fixes and feature additions to assess the claim. As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. Higher is better.

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. Custom metrics measure a particular, custom event for the user, e.g. Twitter’s Time To First Tweet and Pinterest’s PinnerWaitTime. What does it mean?

Last time around we looked at the DeathStarBench suite of microservices-based benchmark applications and learned that microservices systems can be especially latency sensitive, and that hotspots can propagate through a microservices architecture in interesting ways. When available, it can use hardware level performance counters.

The modifications persist even in the event of a system failure. Stable media is commonly physical disk storage, but other devices and certain caching facilities qualify as well. Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations.
