That is not a TCP/IP stack in 200 LoC. The thing described is a TCP/IP segment parser with response packet encoder. The “stack” described [1] can not transmit a payload stream. That also means it avoids the “costly (in terms of li

While time-travel debugging would provide such capability, it is highly unlikely they are describing that due to timeframe and unfamiliarity with debuggers. They are most likely describing the much simpler feature of having the debugger dro

You can not just discard the oldest data of a long-running execution trace when doing replay-based time-travel debugging. You can not replay execution without a known state followed by all non-determinism after that state which is most eas

Those are only sufficient to produce a execution trace rather than a full data trace which is needed for time-travel debugging. Though they are sufficient to do what the person you responded to asked for which is just execution trace.

Yes, I am aware. I was using “resistant to sustained aerial bombardment” in the general sense of all classes of mitigations, not just fortification. But thank you for elaborating when I was too lazy to. It helps further reinforce my point t

It is not about “active war”. It is about mitigating known, routine risks. You are confusing a description of the problem and a description of the solution. Routine harmful cyberattacks is a problem. You do not get to abdicate responsibilit

It is not about war footing it is about mitigating known environmental hazards. This can be done geopolitically, collectively, technologically, etc. but the point is that you need to mitigate or accommodate the known, routine risks. It is

Your logic is backwards. Factories are not designed to withstand sustained aerial bombardment because the chance of sustained aerial bombardment is small to non-existent due to effective (geopolitical) mitigations. But, if you are in a acti

Three system calls per packet is not a serious design. First of all, QUIC supports ack ranges which allow ack coalescing, so you do not need to average one ack per packet. Second of all, QUIC supports frame packing, so you can piggyback on

You are arguing: “Why should Google care about wasting 25% of their compute costs?” I do not know how much that is, but presumably it is in the billions per year. A 1% saving would be tens of millions per year and that would only require a

5 GB/s per core would still be 40 Gbps per core, so only ~15% of their time would be spent in encryption. They spend 5x longer doing the non-encryption stuff. Also, it would be silly to bottleneck your protocol implementation benchmark

Do we know if that is true for whatever Google is using internally on their servers? Are they also only getting ~7 Gbps per core or are they going much faster either due to software or hardware? What are the actual exemplary implementations

Their dashboard [1] shows the library only gets ~7 Gbps on what is presumably a single core (given that it is single connection benchmark). Is that considered fast? The memory bus on that system probably pushes at least ~400 Gbps, and even

Are you joking? It is a rate. It is cited in per 100,000 because that is the characteristic rate that results in low integer-scale values. Rates are scale-invariant so you could just as well cite it in per 1,000 if you desire, but then you
