Seeing through hardware counters: a journey to threefold performance increase

The Netflix TechBlog

While we understand it’s virtually impossible to achieve a linear increase in throughput as the number of vCPUs grow, a near-linear increase is attainable. Conclusion We tend to think of modern JVMs as highly optimized runtime environments, in many cases rivaling more “performance-oriented” languages like C++.

How to understand TPC-C tpmC and TPROC-C NOPM and what is ‘good’ performance?

HammerDB

More than ever, we see confusion in interpreting and comparing the performance of databases with workloads derived from the TPC-Council’s TPC-C specification, including HammerDB’s TPROC-C NOPM and TPM. Importantly, TPC-C and tpmC are registered trademarks of the TPC-Council.

CheriABI: enforcing valid pointer provenance and minimizing pointer privilege in the POSIX C run-time environment

The Morning Paper

CheriABI: enforcing valid pointer provenance and minimizing pointer privilege in the POSIX C run-time environment Davis et al., Last week we saw the benefits of rethinking memory and pointer models at the hardware level when it came to object storage and compression ( Zippads ). ASPLOS’19. We answer this question affirmatively.

Comparing HammerDB TPROC-C results with sysbench-tpcc

HammerDB

In a recent project comparing systems for MariaDB performance, a user had originally been using a tool called sysbench-tpcc to compare hardware platforms before migrating to HammerDB. This is a brief post to highlight the metrics to use to do the comparison using a separate hardware platform for illustration purposes. idle%-99.97

Configuration Testing – An Introduction

Testlodge

These systems are a combination of different hardware and software which have been configured to perform the desired task. Configuration testing is performed to discover the optimum combinations of software and hardware specifications that allow the system to work without flaws. An Example. Types of Configuration Testing.
