Seeing through hardware counters: a journey to threefold performance increase

The Netflix TechBlog

A quick canary test was free of errors and showed lower latency, which is expected given that our standard canary setup routes an equal amount of traffic to both the baseline running on 4xl and the canary on 12xl. We also see much higher L1 cache activity combined with 4x higher count of MACHINE_CLEARS.

Predictive CPU isolation of containers at Netflix

The Netflix TechBlog

Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. This avoids thrashing caches too much for B and evens out the pressure on the L3 caches of the machine.

That meant I started having regular meetings with the hardware engineers who were working with IBM on the CPU which gave me even more expertise on this CPU, which was critical in helping me discover a design flaw in one of its instructions , and in helping game developers master this finicky beast. register files? arithmetic units?)

Compress objects, not cache lines: an object-based compressed memory hierarchy

The Morning Paper

Compress objects, not cache lines: an object-based compressed memory hierarchy Tsai & Sanchez, ASPLOS’19. Existing cache and main memory compression techniques compress data in small fixed-size blocks, typically cache lines. Hotpads is a hardware-managed hierarchy of scratchpad-like memories called pads.
