  2. Average memory access time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_memory_access_time

    AMAT's three parameters hit time (or hit latency), miss rate, and miss penalty provide a quick analysis of memory systems. Hit latency (H) is the time to hit in the cache. Miss rate (MR) is the frequency of cache misses, while average miss penalty (AMP) is the cost of a cache miss in terms of time. Concretely it can be defined as follows.

  3. System Idle Process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Idle_Process

    However, the idle process does not use up computer resources (even when stated to be running at a high percent). Its CPU time "usage" is a measure of how much CPU time is not being used by other threads. In Windows 2000 and later the threads in the System Idle Process are also used to implement CPU power saving.

  4. Minecraft server - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecraft_server

    A Minecraft server is a player-owned or business-owned multiplayer game server for the 2011 Mojang Studios video game Minecraft. In this context, the term "server" often refers to a network of connected servers, rather than a single machine. [ 1 ]

  5. Thin client - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_client

    However, while there was now little size difference, thin clients retained some key advantages over these competitors, such as not needing a local drive. However, "thin client" can be a misnomer for slim form-factor computers using flash memory such as compactflash, SD card, or permanent flash memory as a hard disk substitute.

  6. 2b2t - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2b2t

    First logo used from 2010 to 2017. The 2b2t Minecraft server was founded in December 2010; it has run consistently without a reset since then. [6] [1] The founders are anonymous, [7] choosing to remain unknown or known only via usernames; the most prominent founder is commonly referred to as "Hausemaster".

  7. Wait state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_state

    When the processor needs to access external memory, it starts placing the address of the requested information on the address bus. It then must wait for the answer, that may come back tens if not hundreds of cycles later. Each of the cycles spent waiting is called a wait state. Wait states are a pure waste of a processor's performance.

  8. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    Limiting the speed of data sent by a data originator (a client computer or a server computer) is much more efficient than limiting the speed in an intermediate network device between client and server because while in the first case usually no network packets are lost, in the second case network packets can be lost / discarded whenever ingoing data speed overcomes the bandwidth limit or the ...

  9. Write amplification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Write_amplification

    Many SSD controllers implement background garbage collection (BGC), sometimes called idle garbage collection or idle-time garbage collection (ITGC), where the controller uses idle time to consolidate blocks of flash memory before the host needs to write new data. This enables the performance of the device to remain high.
