Was there some other program consuming CPU, like a misbehaving Ubuntu service that wasn't in CentOS? Measuring the speed of time Is there already a microbenchmark for os::javaTimeMillis()? CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. top(1) showed that only the Cassandra database was consuming CPU.

Five-nines availability: The ultimate benchmark of system availability. Instead, to speed up response times, applications are now processing most data at the network’s perimeter, closest to the data’s origin. But is five nines availability attainable? Each decimal point closer to 100 equals higher uptime.

Studies have demonstrated that current generation OOO architectures extract significantly less ILP than is available in the programs. However, if we relax the 1:1 power/performance requirement or procure technologies that lower the power overhead, a 2-3X ST performance speed-up over the current generation of CPUs is quite feasible.

Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. With the proper battery backup and algorithms, the hardware write cache can secure the data safely (on stable media) as well as increase the speed of an application like SQL Server by hiding much of the true physical I/O time.
