  • on swapping and kernels

    There is much more to write about all the work we do at Facebook with memory management efficiency on our systems, but there was this one detour investigation in the middle of 2012 that I had to revisit recently courtesy of Wikipedia. There are lots of factors that make machines page out memory segments into disk, thus slowing everything down and locking software up – from file system cache pressu

As an original author of mydumper I really cannot get out of my mind that 5.5 and 5.6 metadata lo

  • MySQL is bazillion times faster than MemSQL

    I don’t like stupid benchmarks, as they waste my time. I don’t like stupid marketing, as it wastes my time too. Sometimes I succumb to those things, and now in return I want to waste your time a bit. So, this MemSQL thing, written by some smart guys has been making rounds in press and technical community. Centerpiece of all the communication was: “MemSQL, the database they have developed over the
