Key metrics like throughput, request latency, and memory utilization are essential for assessing Redis health, with tools like the MONITOR command and Redis-benchmark for latency and throughput analysis and MEMORY USAGE/STATS commands for evaluating memory. Cache Hit Ratio The cache hit ratio represents the efficiency of cache usage.

Improving each of these should hopefully chip away at the timings of more granular events that precede the LCP milestone, but whenever we’re making these kinds of indirect optimisation, we need to think much more carefully about how we measure and benchmark ourselves as we work. It’s vital to measure what you impact, not what you influence.

Compress objects, not cache lines: an object-based compressed memory hierarchy Tsai & Sanchez, ASPLOS’19. Existing cache and main memory compression techniques compress data in small fixed-size blocks, typically cache lines. These techniques work well for scientific programs that are dominated by arrays.

Key Takeaways Redis offers complex data structures and additional features for versatile data handling, while Memcached excels in simplicity with a fast, multi-threaded architecture for basic caching needs. Redis is better suited for complex data models, and Memcached is better suited for high-throughput, string-based caching scenarios.

Python is a popular programming language, especially for beginners, and consequently we see it occurring in places where it just shouldn’t be used, such as database benchmarking. What programming languages does HammerDB use and why does it matter? Surely any language will do? Background and Concepts.

Only in extreme circumstances does the cost (in processor time and I-cache footprint) translate to a tangible benefit - circumstances which usually resort to hand-coded assembly anyway. Having done this before, it reminds me of CSS programming: you make a little change here and everything breaks, and you spend hours chasing your own tail.
