Direct Memory Alignment in Java
Summary: First in a quick(hopefully) series of posts on memory alignment in Java. This post introduces memory alignment, shows how to get memory aligned blocks, and offers an experiment and some results concerning unaligned memory performance. Since the first days of Java, one of the things you normally didn't need to worry about was memory. This was a good thing for all involved who cared little
Memory Access Patterns Are Important
In high-performance computing it is often said that the cost of a cache-miss is the largest performance penalty for an algorithm. For many years the increase in speed of our processors has greatly outstripped latency gains to main-memory. Bandwidth to main-memory has greatly increased via wider, and multi-channel, buses however the latency has not significantly reduced. To hide this latency our
False Sharing
Memory is stored within the cache system in units know as cache lines. Cache lines are a power of 2 of contiguous bytes which are typically 32-256 in size. The most common cache line size is 64 bytes. False sharing is a term which applies when threads unwittingly impact the performance of each other while modifying independent variables sharing the same cache line. Write contention on cache l
