The Morning Paper

DECEMBER 8, 2019

On the last morning of the conference Daniel Bittman presented some of the work being done in the context of the Twizzler OS project to explore new programming models for NVM. Traditional pointers address a memory location (often virtual of course). This is left as an exercise for the application developer at present.

This post complements the previous best practice guides this time with the focus on MySQL and MariaDB and achieving top levels of performance with the HammerDB MySQL TPC-C test. As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. order by c.

Mobiles have different models, screen resolutions, operating systems, network types, hardware configurations, etc. Also, how to test the hardware of the mobile phone itself, is it supporting all the software as it should? Let us have a look at the most popular types of mobile testing for applications and hardware.

CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. As a Xen guest, this profile was gathered using perf(1) and the kernel's software cpu-clock soft interrupts, not the hardware NMI. Note that Ubuntu also has a frame to show entry into vDSO (virtual dynamic shared object). Ubuntu is 5x slower.

I became the Sun UK local specialist in performance and hardware, and as Sun transitioned from a desktop workstation company to sell high end multiprocessor servers I was helping customers find and fix scalability problems. We had specializations in hardware, operating systems, databases, graphics, etc. that a lot of people used.

“ Scalability” is a product of both the benchmarking application itself (See the post on HammerDB Architecture to see how it scales implementing multiple virtual users as threads) as well as the benchmarking workload (The TPC benchmarks that HammerDB uses have been designed specifically for this purpose and proven over decades to scale).
