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. to a larger AWS instance size, from m5.4xl (16 vCPUs) to m5.12xl (48 vCPUs). The workload of GS2 is computationally heavy where CPU is the limiting resource.
