Why Data Movement, Not CPU Speed, Is the Real Performance Bottleneck

Most engineers blame slow CPUs for performance issues, but the true bottleneck is often data latency—from registers and caches to DRAM, NUMA nodes, disks, and networks—so understanding and minimizing data movement is key to reducing tail latency and improving system performance.

Alluxio Edge: Edge Caching Solution for Trino and PrestoDB

Alluxio Edge is a library that runs inside Trino or PrestoDB workers, using local SSD or memory to cache data from cloud storage, which restores data locality, cuts storage egress, and delivers up to ten‑fold IO speed gains and up to ten‑fold query performance improvements in real deployments.
