Last time out we saw how Google have been able to save millions of dollars though memory compression enabled via zswap. Looking across a set of eight Java benchmarks, we find that only two of them are array dominated, the rest having between 40% to 75% of the heap footprint allocated to objects, the vast majority of which are small.

I became the Sun UK local specialist in performance and hardware, and as Sun transitioned from a desktop workstation company to sell high end multiprocessor servers I was helping customers find and fix scalability problems. We had specializations in hardware, operating systems, databases, graphics, etc. that a lot of people used.

One, by researching on the Internet; Two, by developing small programs and benchmarking. The legacy languages — be it ASM or C still rule in terms of performance. Considering all aspects and needs of current enterprise development, it is C++ and Java which outscore the other in terms of speed.

These, let’s call them metal languages , include FORTRAN (introduced in 1957), C (1972), and C++ (1985). Programmers continue to write applications in them, and they continue to evolve: the just approved C++20 standard is the latest example. Despite their age, these languages are far from dead! As Leiserson et al.

Run performance experiments and measure outcomes — both on mobile and on desktop (for example, with Google Analytics ). Note : as TCP generally under-utilizes network connection by a significant amount, Google has developed TCP Bottleneck Bandwidth and RRT ( BBR ), a relatively new TCP delay-controlled TCP flow control algorithm.
