It’s rather cool, it lists hot sites that people discover. As if I didn’t have enough to look at. Here are just three random sites I viewed in a few mins I liked.

When pointing to a Readyset cache where I have cached the 5 queries used in the sysbench test, but I have not run any execution of the SQL, throughput went up 10x in 5 seconds.
Read moreHigher throughput does not imply improved performance. This is a common problem when the need for an application to support more users, you provide higher concurrency and that appears to show the capability to support higher throughput.
Read moreReadyset is a next-generation database caching solution that offers a drop-in; no application code changes; approach to improve database performance. If you are using a legacy application where it is difficult to modify SQL statements, or the database is overloaded due to poorly-designed SQL access patterns, implementing a cache is a common design strategy for addressing database reliability and scalability issues.
