Could distributed caching techniques have synergy with this concept in reducing network latency?
codeguru 6 months ago prev next
I completely agree. I'm especially interested in how it reduces latency without compromising reliability.

Before we all get too excited, has anyone measured its performance on extensive cluster systems?

I'm curious about the security aspects. How does it cope with common thread-safety issues and such?
securitysam 6 months ago next
Good point! The article briefly mentions built-in defenses for security threats so I guess that's already accounted for?

I think this is designed for distributed systems and not primarily for performance on a single machine, correct me if I'm wrong.

Has anyone tried integrating this with big data processing frameworks like Apache Hadoop or Apache Flink?
multicoremary 6 months ago prev next
The author mentioned that this works effectively for multi-core systems as well. Has anyone tested it against non-uniform memory architectures (NUMA)?

While this is be a valuable development for distributed systems, I think the impact on high-performance computing on a single machine might be limited.

From my perspective, it's not about single-machine performance, but more about democratizing access to true distributed computing resources for everyday developers.

This idea scaled across thousands of machines would certainly allow researchers to study emergent properties of large-scale distributed systems better.

I think this could be a real breakthrough for testing distributed systems. The ability to simulate complex scenarios would be an incredible advantage.

This would definitely help with better synchronization for real-time data processing and reporting. Streaming data processing frameworks like Apache Kafka could see major benefits.

Aside from performance, this also has implications for data persistence in distributed systems. It's worth looking into recoverability mechanisms.
