There are several reasons why Internet latency is inflated over direct-route speed-of-light latency. Some reasons may change others may not. 1) speed of light in fibre is 2/3c - unlikely to change soon 2) fibre is laid…
The way I understand this proposal, the idea is to find at which request rate the latency of a storage configuration (eg, 2x Optane) explodes. If your request rate is above that rate, get more RAM. I'm not sure I…
Thanks for clarifying!
Can't you do that with DNS records where there are multiple IPs on a A record? Basically, we're already doing this for fault tolerance and load balancing within a single CDN. Except that currently we randomize the IPs.…
