Facebook does have hardware for video transcoding. [1] https://youtu.be/0yk4SPRisPA

This part I'm skeptical: "Compared to CPU time, CPU instruction is a better metric, as it reports the same numbers regardless of CPU models and CPU loads for the same request." CPU…

It's really impressive that it can handle these many container placements. But, honest question, what's the value of determining how fast can we schedule a million containers? This…

Besides that, why are all these response time numbers multiple of 10, are these rounded up, or is it the precision of the timestamps used to compute these?

The explanations here gave a lot of details on the effect, but IMHO, not as many details in the cause of Coordinated Omission (CO). Most of what I'll be saying here comes from a CM…

Also for those who enjoyed this paper, I think you will also like CMU's Prof. Mor Harchol-Balter's book[1] on queuing theory applied for designing, and analyzing performance of, co…

I'm trying to relate this back to computer systems if its even possible, say comparing it to scheduling block requests from multiple processes to a block device, if the LIFO discip…

Thanks! I don't understand why the MIT News article has no links to the sources.

I understand your point, and I'm not trying to be a troll. Humans are more complex than that. I don't think you can assume that candidates will perform the same all the time. Somet…

Check out Gatling[1], which is based on Scala, Akka, and Netty, and last time I checked works on Windows. The only thing missing would be an out-of-box solution for distributed loa…

There's a branch from Gil Tene (Azul) that fixes wrk for the coordinated omission problem, which he explains in the readme of that same repo[1]. [1] https://github.com/giltene/wrk2…

It seems to me that the workloads on Digital Ocean are not fully utilizing the block device. FIO shows about 50% util for DO, and 81% for Linode on the queue depth=1 test, and 70%/…

I'm having a similar issue, but I already tried 0.0.4, this is what I got, it seems it can't find clojure 1.5.0 jar. https://gist.github.com/3078651
