An opening scene involving a traffic jam of Viking boats and a musical number (“Love Can’t Afjord to wait”). Earlier this month I spent a week at the OpenStack conference.

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. Since instances of both CentOS and Ubuntu were running in parallel, I could collect flame graphs at the same time (same time-of-day traffic mix) and compare them side by side. include <sys/time.h>

Running this on the two systems saw similar results.
