摘要： Technologies for managing data object requests in a storage node cluster include a proxy computing node communicatively coupled to the cluster of storage nodes. The proxy computing node is configured to receive data object requests from a communicatively coupled client computing device and identify a plurality of storage nodes of the cluster at which the data object of the data object request is stored. The proxy computing node is further configured to determine which of the identified storage nodes from which to retrieve the stored data object and transmit a request for the data object. Additionally, the proxy computing node is configured to estimate a request completion time based on a service time and a wait time for each of the identified storage nodes, as well as identify which of the storage nodes to retrieve the stored data object from based on the estimated request completion times. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： A heterogeneous processor architecture and a method of booting a heterogeneous processor is described. A processor according to one embodiment comprises: a set of large physical processor cores; a set of small physical processor cores having relatively lower performance processing capabilities and relatively lower power usage relative to the large physical processor cores; and a package unit, to enable a bootstrap processor. The bootstrap processor initializes the homogeneous physical processor cores, while the heterogeneous processor presents the appearance of a homogeneous processor to a system firmware interface.

摘要： A processor includes multiple physical cores that support multiple logical cores of different core types, where the core types include a big core type and a small core type. A multi-threaded application includes multiple software threads are concurrently executed by a first subset of logical cores in a first time slot. Based on data gathered from monitoring the execution in the first time slot, the processor selects a second subset of logical cores for concurrent execution of the software threads in a second time slot. Each logical core in the second subset has one of the core types that matches the characteristics of one of the software threads.
