KANAGA TEST SUITE~50TB of data (2003-2015)

Years 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 are tested

Tests:

MKTSNAP – returns 4-hour volume-weighted average bid for 12 randomly-selected days with a heavy

overlap among requests (Random Read)

HIBID – returns the highest bid price for each of a certain 1% of symbols over a particular range of years

in the dataset (Sequential Read)

VWAB – returns the price and size information from the latest quote and trade for each of a certain 1%

of symbols at a unique time on a unique date in the given year of the dataset (User scaling)

Threading: 1, 10, 50, 100. Metric is a response time.

KANAGA TEST SUITE: OS/hw TuningTested:

OS: read_ahead_kb: high sensitivity, 16 is the best overall

OS: nr_requests: low sensitivity

OS: Hugepages: low sensitivity

HW: NUMA: high sensitivity, HIBID much better with ON

HW: UPI, XPT Prefetch: low sensitivity

HW: Snoop mode: low sensitivity, Home Snoop better for VWAB

Test suite: number of slaves: low sensitivity (if > clients)
