The focus of most published research in architecture is on applications implemented in high-performance, “ close-to-the-metal” languages essentially developed before computers got fast. The current state-of-the-art Python compiler, pypy , often yields around a 2x improvement in performance (and sometimes less).

Classics of the genre include: Apple's just focused on performance! The Performance Argument. 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. This is as it should be.

This is fair game and compilers could use this insight, but they do not do it systematically. As a benchmark, I am going to compute a linear congruential generator (basically a recursive linear function with a remainder thrown in), using these three approaches, plus the naive one. uint32_t indirectmod64 ( uint32_t a ) {.

To top it all off, consumers are very excited about the much-anticipated climaxes of franchises like Avengers, Star Wars, and Game of Thrones. One thing is clear: when planning for the consumer experience to be simple and easy to use, the backend infrastructure and performance becomes much more complicated.

HAProxy performs better with a low number of connections, while ProxySQL performs better when a high number of connections is in place. Brief summary This test highlights that HAProxy and ProxySQL can reach a level of connection higher than the slowest runner in the game (MySQL Router). MySQL Router was never in the game.
