HN Theater @HNTheaterMonth

I have found a video, but not the related paper, although I'm hoping the video points to the paper.

Dick Sites is the name of the presenter (super hard to search for!). The presentation is titled "Data Center Computers: Modern Challenges in CPU Design".

One thing that makes this February talk particularly relevant now is the part about 40+ minutes in where he talks about cache interference. That's the inverse of cache partitioning (or Cache Allocation Technology in Intel-speak) which Dan Luu wrote an excellent article about a few days ago.

Anyone trying to cram lots of workloads onto a single physical system should make sure they understand this stuff.
