A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. As a Xen guest, this profile was gathered using perf(1) and the kernel's software cpu-clock soft interrupts, not the hardware NMI. Software-based clocksources could fix those issues and provide accurate monotonically-increasing time.

As there are few individuals with this expertise, an easier process presents a significant opportunity for companies who want to accelerate their ML usage. After this, there is often a long process of training that includes tuning the knobs and levers, called hyperparameters, that control the different aspects of the training algorithm.

When we merge these two concepts together and present them to the customer, we have the plan selection page (shown above). This implies that the presentation layer should be void of any business logic and should simply be responsible for rendering data that is passed to it. Conclusion This work was a large cross-functional effort.

Because we are dealing with network protocols here, we will mainly look at network aspects, of which two are most important: latency and bandwidth. Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).

Therefore if you are testing MySQL or MariaDB’s ability to support web-based applications that use SQL statements with minimal contention then sysbench is likely to present the best assessment of the system for this type of workload.
