#CPPCON2017. Day 2. Why Local Allocators are a Good Thing(tm) Performance-Wise, and Why I am Very Cautious about C++17 STL parallelized algos

posted September 27, 2017 by "No Bugs" Hare

At CPPCON2017 Day 2, two talks were of special interest to me. One was a 2-hour talk about Local Allocators – and another about C++17 STL parallelised algorithms. Local Allocators The talk on Local Allocator by John Lakos was brilliant both in terms of content and in terms of presentation (I wish I’d be able to speak […]

Another Quote: “Just like Scaling Up, improving performance doesn’t provide infinite scalability. However, it happens that it is all about numbers.”

Gradual OLTP DB Development – from Zero to 10 Billion Transactions per Year and Beyond
