Try the latest Scala Future impl!
First: Close all other applications, so that they don't interfere with the benchmark.
Second: Make sure that your computer is adequately cooled during the benchmark so it doesn't start thermal throttling.
Third: clone https://github.com/viktorklang/scala-futures/
Fourth: git checkout wip-optimizations-√
Fifth: start sbt

Internet Scale Services Checklist

Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

Basic tenets

  • Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
  • Have we kept things as simple as possible?
