Summary Change compact object headers from an experimental feature to a product feature. Non-Goals It is not a goal to make compact object headers be the default object-header layout. Motivation Compact object headers were introduced as an alternative object-header layout by JEP 450 in JDK 24. Features of this size are best introduced carefully and gradually, so we introduced it as an experimental feature. Since JDK 24, compact object headers have proven their stability and performance. T

I planned to write a chiplets explainer this week while traveling to and from CadenceLIVE in San Jose… but I got sucked into the broader chiplets backstory while doing research. After all, chiplets are a semiconductor manufacturing and scaling story of sorts! So I’m pivoting. This post shares the fun historical arc of transistor and IC scaling and concludes with the problems chiplets set out to overcome. A future post will pick up where this leaves off, discussing chiplets and their trade-offs.

The Lost Decade of Small Data? Hannes Mühleisen Published on Reading time: 9 minutes TL;DR: We benchmark DuckDB on a 2012 MacBook Pro to decide: did we lose a decade chasing distributed architectures for data analytics? Much has been said, not in the very least by ourselves, about how data is actually not that “Big” and how the speed of hardware innovation is outpacing the growth of useful datasets. We may have gone so far to predict a data singularity in the near future, where 99% of useful

There was a piano at home, but for a variety of reasons, I didn’t play it. When my folks moved to a smaller house in 2021, the piano came to live in my study/music studio. I figured i

The scaffolding surrounding the Charing Cross railway bridge has received an addition – two bales of hay/straw – because an ancient law requires it. The law requires a bale of straw to be hung from a bridge as a warning to mariners whenever the height between the river and the bridge’s arches is reduced, as it is at Charing Cross at the moment. According to the Port of London Thames Byelaws, Clause 36.2, a bale of straw has to be placed under London bridges “when the headroom of an arch or spa

I don’t have many pet peeves. That said, no matter how hard I try, I just can’t get over the sheer madness of the scientific “unit” we call the decibel (dB). What’s a decibel? Well, the most common answer is “uhh". The second most common answer is that it’s “a way to measure loudness”. But it isn’t! A decibel is not a unit in any conventional sense: it’s more akin to a prefix such as mega- in megabyte. It describes a change in magnitude. On the face of it, the idea makes sense. We sometimes wa
