@flashdba @dw_pete +1 for a shouty MILLION!

[SPEC @spec_perf]

The new #SPECstorage Solution 2020 #benchmark never requires more than 1,000 #TCP ports. This enables users to scale up to 4 million processes without running into #cloud constraints. #SPEC #storage #performance @storagereview. https://t.co/4nWAiFQWFr

@rmgruen Are you leaving out the one Gruem this year?

[WEKA @weka]

@weka #filesystem on @AWS_Partners (AWS) hits it out of the park in the #IO500 #benchmark and takes home the trophy for the win overall. Learn more: https://t.co/5VpoMvU5o0

WekaIO beat an Optane DIMM+SSD-enhanced DAOS. Pretty cool.

[SPEC @spec_perf]

On this day 5 years ago, #SPEC released the SPEC SFS 2014 #benchmark, measuring #performance of the entire #storage configuration as it interacts with application-based workloads. SP2 was released in Dec. 2017. #NFS #SMB #CIFS #fileserver https://t.co/mVZGjzhizz

OpenSSH folks... is ssh -f supposed to work with ControlMaster=auto? It seems to not background anymore once the socket is established, but at least one resource online seems to indicate it should. Tested on CentOS 8, Fedora Server 31, and FreeBSD 12.

Gosh, many feelings about this. But the main one: technology bubbles are very, very badly underrated.

With the typical unhelpfulness of the childless relative, my brother-in-law has convinced my children that he has a prawn plant in his garden. Should I tell them?

Looking forward to 2020, the year those laggards in agriculture finally adopt Itanium!

If your Ops can't handle heterogeneous intermittent services outages without hard-crashing for days, that's not a cloud problem. That's an architecture problem that's going to follow you through time and space and layers of reality.
