Testing MySQL 8.0.16 on Skylake with innodb_spin_wait_pause_multiplier

HammerDB

However as noted many factors affect spin-locks including how much time you actually spend in locks in the first place and therefore the best way to really determine how much time you have to spend in fine-tuning spin-locks in the real world can be done through testing. In the recent MySQL 8.0.16 mysqld] datadir=/home/mysql/mysql-8.0.16/mysql-8.0.16-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64/data

The Speed of Time

Brendan Gregg

CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. Note that Ubuntu also has a frame to show entry into vDSO (virtual dynamic shared object). Measuring the speed of time Is there already a microbenchmark for os::javaTimeMillis()? This was much worse many years ago on Xen virtual machine guests.

Latency: Will it undermine the most interesting 5G use cases?

VoltDB

While current network speeds may be enough to meet the latency requirements of 4G applications, 5G will necessitate a change, if only because the continental US is ~60ms wide, meaning that a datacenter on one coast communicating with another datacenter on the opposite coast will be too slow for 5G. These have to communicate with each other.
