"Le...There's a time mistake in your post:<br /><br />"Let's look at the absolute numbers for latencies. Modern hard drives have latencies under 13 milliseconds; in contrast RAM latency is in the 5 nanosecond range. So, RAM is 2,000 times faster."<br /><br />1ms = 1 million ns, so by these numbers RAM is 2,000,000 times faster.<br /><br />I never remembered RAM having a 5 ns access time - it was always ~200ns, but things could have changed.Morgan Tockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07820955267400574921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436330762136344379.post-18337792167425811012010-12-24T16:51:07.286-05:002010-12-24T16:51:07.286-05:00Yeah , get RAMclouds out there :D.
You don't ...Yeah , get RAMclouds out there :D.<br /><br />You don't need to make a case for it dude, it's a friking awesome idea ... why have your app be slow because of cheap hardware ? BAM smash in 20gb of DDR3 and away it goes.urssurhttp://urssur.comnoreply@blogger.com
