Modern DRAM is based on a brilliant design from IBM.But, we're still paying for a latency penalty that's existed since the 60s!In this video, I'm introducing...
Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean it’s nonsense.
For anyone else wondering what it’s about. Due to the way modern memory chips function, they leak electricity and have to be recharged periodically. This prevents the CPU from accessing the memory resulting in latency spikes. This video explains that, and explores methods to mitigate it.
