It begins.
Robert Wilson
Wrong.
Parker Rogers
The performance hit is real, people are already complaining to Amazon:

Ethan Sullivan
this is going to cause a tech market crash.
Alexander Miller
I FUCKING HOPE SO
Josiah Gray
That thread is from 2017 and unrelated to Meltdown my friendo
David Nguyen
Patch applied early because that guy forced an update instead of waiting for Amazon to do it on the 5th
Andrew Hall
you mean a market meltdown.
Mason Wright
can someone give me a quick rundown of what I'm looking at here?
Jordan Nelson
increased server CPU usage due to Meltdown fix
Jacob Richardson
Intel CPU's have a critical security bug that requires an expensive (in CPU execution time) software mitigation.
The graph demonstrates what is presumably the result of that fix in use on some server.

There is an increase of an average of 1%. How terrifying.
Grayson Ross
>150% increase useage
Ha Ha Ha Holy shit ha ha ah.
Evan Green
From 0.5% to 1%, that's 50% slower.
Matthew Brown
Christian Cox
AMD doesn't have this problem.
Jeremiah Davis
Jesus fuck this is going to be a mess. I feel sorry for all the poor fucks who are going to be tasked with trying to mitigate this.
Cameron Green
Azure is rebooting the VMs.
Andrew Robinson
Their fault, for choosing Intel.
Evan Carter
It's not they had any choice before...
Elijah Williams
>their fault for choosing a CPU with a problem that nobody knew about
>hurr I bought AMD without knowing about this Intel issue, so I'm retroactively smart
Jeremiah Sanders
To be fair "no body got fired for buying Intel". At least... Until today!
Dylan Hall
shady companies do shady things all the time
that Intel is shady is public knowledge
so yes, you're stupid for buying a product from a unscrupulous corporation that most likely was garbage
Ayden Martin
That's different.
Those load averages are not percentages.
Jordan Harris
LMAO THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF Gg/ggg//ggGG
Easton Lewis
this is how it is being used while monitoring AWS
>t. former free tier AWS user
Ryan Taylor
That's kinda retarded, because percent is measured out of 100. So if you say something is measured in percent and then show a graph from 0 to 2.5 then the assumption is that 97.5 levels of the graph are not being shown.
Which is also why I assumed that this one here is not jumping from two full cores of usage up to peaking 10 but averaging six.
Jonathan King
Intel will come up with new processor generation shortly and you can rebuy your performance back. Thank you!
Wyatt Walker
Intel won't have an unbugged processor ready to ship until Q2 2019 at the earliest.
