How to Assess MySQL Performance

HammerDB

Regardless of whether the computing platform to be evaluated is on-prem, containerized, virtualized, or in the cloud, it is crucial to consider several essential factors. Therefore, before we attempt to measure our database performance, we should know the system or cloud instance to be tested in detail. Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04

CheriABI: enforcing valid pointer provenance and minimizing pointer privilege in the POSIX C run-time environment

The Morning Paper

The work includes changes to the CHERI ISA, the C compiler, the C language runtime, the virtual memory APIs, and the CheriBSD kernel. On a context switch the kernel saves and restores user-thread register capability state, and updates virtual-physical mappings. The MIPS rows show the test suite results on a standard mips64 system.

Measuring The Performance Of Typefaces For Users (Part 1)

Smashing Magazine

How would we test to see if there is any difference between a good sans serif and a serif typeface with users? And today, we still have type in a digital context, but it travels through cables, wirelessly on smartphones, and in virtual reality glasses in 3D. So scientific tests for typeface legibility are often full of flaws.
