Introduction: In December 2017, my colleague Damon McDougall (now at AMD) asked for help in porting the fused multiply-add example code from a Colfax report ( [link] ) to the Xeon Phi x200 (Knights Landing) processors here at TACC. Instead, we found puzzle after puzzle. Instead, we found puzzle after puzzle.

Understanding DBaaS DBaaS cloud services allow users to use databases without configuring physical hardware and infrastructure or installing software. Doing extensive benchmarks will be the subject of a future blog post. In any case, you should benchmark both RDS MySQL and Aurora before taking the decision to migrate.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2016

When we released Always On Availability Groups in SQL Server 2012 as a new and powerful way to achieve high availability, hardware environments included NUMA machines with low-end multi-core processors and SATA and SAN drives for storage (some SSDs). As we moved towards SQL Server 2014, the pace of hardware accelerated.

HTML, CSS, images, and fonts can all be parsed and run at near wire speeds on low-end hardware, but JavaScript is at least three times more expensive, byte-for-byte. If you or your company are able to generate a credible worldwide latency estimate in the higher percentiles for next year's update, please get in touch.

As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. For anyone benchmarking MySQL with HammerDB it is important to understand the differences from sysbench workloads as HammerDB is targeted at a testing a different usage model from sysbench. Configure MySQL.

Have we optimized enough with tree-shaking, scope hoisting, code-splitting, and all the fancy loading patterns with intersection observer, progressive hydration, clients hints, HTTP/3, service workers and — oh my — edge workers? It’s much easier to reach performance goals when the code base is fresh or is just being refactored.

Is it worth exploring tree-shaking, scope hoisting, code-splitting, and all the fancy loading patterns with intersection observer, server push, clients hints, HTTP/2, service workers and — oh my — edge workers? It’s much easier to reach performance goals when the code base is fresh or is just being refactored.
