  4. Mar 2, 2019 · However, a few paragraphs later, when discussing replication as a scheme for enforcing coherence, they say. Replication reduces both latency of access and contention for a read shared data item. My interpretation is that replicating data to local caches allows multicore processors to reduce latency (because of data locality - the data is ...

  5. May 27, 2012 · 1. In App Engine, each instance of an Event is read/written as an entire object. You would be worried about contention on each instance of Event. If you must update a single instance of Event frequently, then you may need to worry about contention. If you update different instances, then there's nothing to worry about.

  9. Jun 29, 2012 · I would however suggest that you define the macro on the command-line rather than in the code: -std=c89 -D_USE_MATH_DEFINES. If you ever encounter a math.h implementation that does not define M_PI, then that is easily fixed without code modification by similarly using command line defined macros: -std=c89 -DM_PI=3.14159265358979323846.

  10. Sep 25, 2012 · If you want to use per-thread heap with HeapCreate, and your allocation/deallocation code is reasonably contained, then you could simply call HeapAlloc and HeapFree explicitly in your thread code.
