A year ago, Redis Inc (formerly Garantia Data) made a controversial move that disrupted the open source ecosystem: it closed the source of Redis. As I wrote at the time, it was a trust-breaking decision that could have shattered the community. But instead of splintering, the community responded with purpose. Out of that disruption came Valkey, a fork that took a shot at keeping the community alive. A Return, A Reversal As part of efforts to rebuild trust with the community, Redis Inc brought

Virtual Threads Ate My Memory: A Web Crawler’s Tale of Speed vs. Memory Dario Balinzo Follow 5 min read · 2 days ago 2 days ago -- 1 Listen Share Photo by Julian Hochgesang on Unsplash I built a simple web crawler using good old platform threads. It was just a multithreaded crawler, nothing fancy. But then, curiosity struck: “What happens if I use Virtual Threads instead?” Virtual Threads are one of my favorite recent additions to the Java ecosystem. Switching from platform threads to Virtual

This is going to be a long post, but I hope you get value out of it. This wasn’t an easy topic to tackle but it was definitely worthwhile! Hopefully, you leave with a decent understanding of how memory ordering works and how to use atomics in conjunction with memory ordering to build a lock-free queue in C++. Note: If you want to actually compile the code and run it, make sure to do so with the TSan flag enabled for the CLang compiler. TSan is a reliable way of detecting data races in your cod

This is another post about programming, which I almost never write about. Click here to jump straight to trying this thing out for yourself. In my previous post on Threads, I made an offhand comparison: Threads are just emulator save states, coupled with a condition upon which they will be resumed. At the time, I thought this a pretty okay analogy — but I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I’ve been turning it around in my mind for a while. I think it has serious untapped potential as a pedago

Not everyone is able to write funky fused operators to make ML models run faster on GPUs using clever quantisation tricks. However lots of developers work with algorithms that feel like they should be able to leverage the thousands of cores in a GPU to run faster than using the dozens of cores on a server CPU. To see what is possible and what is involved, I revisited the first problem I ever considered trying to accelerate with a GPU. What is unusual about my chosen problem is that it is officia

Memory Consistency Models: A Tutorial There are, of course, only two hard things in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors. But there is another hard problem lurking amongst the tall weeds of computer science: seeing things in order.
