My final thoughts about scalability..

Hello...

My final thoughts about scalability..

I think that i am like proving the following: An understanding of a 
concept is a running concept, because to be able to be an understanding 
of a concept there must be a running concept, and the running concept 
permits us to measure the running concept, so the running concept of 
democracy permits us to say that "democracy" is good or not, that's the 
same for software scalability, because the software scalability is also 
the running concept of software scalability that permits us to measure 
the running concept of scalability, so we can finally say that software 
scalability is also the running software scalability , and this running 
concept of software scalability is the new "speed" of the software 
relatively to the old speed, and the old speed can be fixed here or 
there in the reference of time.

Read the rest of my previous thoughts to understand more:


I think i have to do more philosophy about scalability..

I said the following:

"The actual scalability of my Parallel Sort Library in the mergesort 
mode will go to around 12X"


In political philosophy we have what we call the "concept" of democracy,
but we have to know that the concept of democracy that is understood by
our mind and consciousness is a "running" concept of democracy, i mean
a running concept of democracy in our mind.

That's the same for software scalability, software scalability is not
just the concept, software scalability is also the running concept of
software scalability, and this running concept of software scalability 
is the new "speed" of the software relatively to the old speed, and the 
old speed can be fixed here or there in the reference of time, this is 
why when i say that:

"The actual scalability of my Parallel Sort Library in the mergesort 
mode will go to around 12X"

It also means the "running" concept of scalability.


So read my below previous writing to understand more:


More explanation about scalability..

As you have noticed i said below the following:

"The actual scalability of my Parallel Sort Library in the mergesort 
mode will go to around 12X"

You have to distinguish between the scalability that is the combination 
of scalability of hardware and software, and the scalability that is 
only software or only hardware.

So you have to know that i am speaking below about the "total" 
scalability of both the hardware(from one channel memory to 8 channels
memory) and software on actual Intel and AMD processors, but 3D stacking
of memory will give much more scalability.


Read again:

About Multi-channel memory architecture and my Parallel Sort Library..

On actual Intel and AMD processors data is moved from and to main memory 
only in 64 bytes chunks, so in a 8 channels of a Multi-channel memory 
architecture in a ganged mode, i think that the memory speed of
my Parallel Sort library in the mergesort mode will go to 8X speed,
and the actual scalability of my Parallel Sort Library in the mergesort 
mode will go to around 12X. So i will advice you to use the ganged mode 
of the Multi-channel memory architecture because it works great.

My Parallel Sort Library was updated to version 3.64

I have enhanced it more, and i think it is stable and fast
and it scales more.
