Why do developers forget/ignore css rules for firefox? ;_;


I'm quite surprised to see that there's no Aerospike in this comparison.



Similarly, I was hoping to find VoltDB in the mix.


I'll try to benchmark it soon. Thank you!


Why downvote? How is VoltDB not relevant here?


No idea (I haven't voted here at all), but maybe someone didn't want to make this a long thread naming myriad of NoSQL databases out there?


This is only a first try. I'm going to make another review of a large number of NoSQL solutions soon. Aerospike will be observed there.


Agreed. It's pretty trivial to overwhelm a Redis instance. For ad serving scenarios at high traffic scenarios Aerospike is really where it's at.


Unlikely you are going to overwhelm Redis in a non-deterministic fashion. What do you even mean by overwhelm?

The post only concerns itself with in-memory workloads; I don't think Aerospike is competition in this space, while their advantage is against workloads working against SSD backed datasets. "After Google published a blog post “Cassandra Hits One Million Writes Per Second on Google Compute Engine” – using 300 nodes, we followed the same steps and documented how Aerospike Hits One Million Writes Per Second With Just 50 Nodes On Google Compute Engine. [...] Aerospike on SSD is very comparable to that of RAM. At 100% write, the SSDs are able to sustain 226,000 transactions per second compared to 239,000 for RAM." [0] Redis would have no problem hitting 250K IOPS on just a single core provided by GCE (or AWS EC2 or similar).

Redis needs only two nodes on GCE to deliver 1M writes per second: https://redislabs.com/blog/nosql-bar-datastax-aerospike-couc...


A single Redis instance uses a single CPU core so yeah, hitting the its limits (no matter how high) is always a possibility. OTOH, there's always the possibility for sharding and clustering a Redis database to scale it up 'n out, thus making "overwhelming" it less trivial.


Unfortunately, I learned it the hard way :(


Firefox 42 on OSX crashes repeatedly on switching the examples.


Same here in Windows 7.


I'll take a look, it's probably because of webgl context disposal, also crashes in android Firefox :(


Yep, it is. I have reported the bug to Mozilla, hopefully they will be able to fix it.


I'm not entirely sure, but zooming closer to gear teeth interaction, it looks like cogs aren't aligning perfectly like they do in real life? I'm viewing this in firefox, so that might be a reason as well.


In real life the do align perfectly, otherwise they will get stuck.

Here there are off a bit because 1. I didn't get the sizes absolutely right as I modeled it in Blender and not in a real CAD (like Gearotic) and 2. The gear simulation is iterative so some floating point error accumulates over time.


Thanks for the explanation :)


AWS Premium support is a joke. I never got a reply under 1 hour time, like they promised.


It's a 404.



same here.


I heard about it from a friend while in college.


I just signed up and felt cheated. It seemed that "59 invites left" was just to fool us and get our email ids.

Why would you ask someone to signup when you don't have anything to show?


The sign up is to secure a free version of a.i. RESUME. You will be sent instructions to set it up shortly. I do apologize if you feel cheated I can assure you that you are going to love a.i. RESUME!


"Instrad" instead of "Instead" :P


thanks! fixed (;
