Here’s a simple non-standard allocator for C++ I used a few times in the past: https://github.com/Const-me/CollectionMicrobench/blob/master... The block size is controlled with a template argument, the number

The best keyboard I ever had was Velocifire VM02WS. It has mechanical brown switches, and it worked flawlessly for more than 5 years. Then the left control key broke down. The rest of the keyboards I have used, no matter mechanical or not,

Generally, std::vector not going to work for allocator backend. The issue being, std::vector relocates all elements every time it increases the capacity. Therefore, adding an element to std::vector may invalidate addresses of all previously

Linux kernel doesn't have ABI for device drivers. The device manufacturers either can't or won't publish the drivers as a part of Linux kernel, that's why they fork Linux instead.

I don’t think in this case it matters even for spiky workloads. The relative difference is too small. The difference in CPU base frequency is 3.8 versus 4.0 GHz, which is 5% slower. However, for spiky workloads boost frequency is IMO more r

AMD has already released a product featuring Zen4c cores designed for servers. In contrast to Intel, AMD's small cores are not crappy; they are real Zen4 cores, with a reduction in size achieved by sacrificing some of the L3 cache and

I don’t care who controls what if the technology in question is technically good, and it comes with a good enough license. Here’s two examples. For embedded Linux, .NET runtime delivers memory safety for high-level pieces, great support for

When I just want the ability to go as fast as conventional readable C++, I use C# instead. Compared to conventional C++, C# is typically only slightly worse in terms of performance. C# is safer than Rust, and the usability is IMO an order o

OP has tested the 4600G APU. Theoretically, the chip can do 710 FP32 GFlops on CPU, and 1702 GFlops on the integrated GPU. Another thing, it’s hard to write CPU code which saturates memory throughput instead of stalling on memory latency. I
