HammerDB has always used stored procedures as a design decision because the original benchmark was implemented as close as possible to the example workload in the TPC-C specification that uses stored procedures. Additionally, reviewing official TPC-C full disclosure reports highlighted that all vendors also use stored procedures.

Before booting a compiled Linux kernel image on actual hardware, it can save us time and potential headache to do a quick boot in a virtual machine like QEMU. s -S & $ gdb vmlinux ( gdb ) target remote :1234 ( gdb ) hbreak start_kernel ( gdb ) c ( gdb ) lx-dmesg. Try ctrl+a , then c , to get a (qemu) prompt.

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.

Byte-addressable non-volatile memory,) NVM will fundamentally change the way hardware interacts, the way operating systems are designed, and the way applications operate on data. Traditional pointers address a memory location (often virtual of course). At least, the nature of pointers that we want to make persistent.

Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

There's also a ZFS send/recv code path that should try to use the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE flag (as suggested by a coworker), to avoid a kernel hang (can't kill -9 the process). Hit Ctrl-C to end. ^C On Linux, containers are a combination of namespaces (restricting what a process sees) and cgroups (similar to Solaris resource controls).

The load average is an average of the number of runnable processes over a given time period.

Micro-optimizations are great for keeping performance on track, but it’s critical to have clearly defined targets in mind — measurable goals that would influence any decisions made throughout the process. Also, as Patrick Meenan suggested, it’s worth to plan out a loading sequence and trade-offs during the design process.
