A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. 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). Running this on the two systems saw similar results.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. All modern browsers are fast, Chromium and Safari/WebKit included. Offscreen Canvas.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.

The HammerDB TPROC-C workload by design intended as CPU and memory intensive workload derived from TPC-C – so that we get to benchmark at maximum CPU performance at a much smaller database footprint. For TPC-C this meant enough available spindles to reduce I/O latency and for TPC-H enough bandwidth for data throughput.

Likewise, object access paths must be heavily multi-threaded and avoid lock contention to minimize access latency and maximize throughput. These are areas in which we have invested heavily to take advantage of 10 Gbps (and faster) networks and to handle intermittent network delays inherent in virtual server infrastructures.

Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. The BPool consumes the majority of the user mode address space leaving only a few 100 MB of the virtual address range free for thread stacks, DLLs, and other activities.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
