Ожидания получения BufferPin включают в себя:1) Конфликты BufferPin на репликах (recovery conflict). Процесс на реплике startup должен получить блокировку на буфер, чтобы проиграть (replay, apply, накатить журнальную запись) hotcleanup, для этого startup должен дождаться pincount=0. Быстрая очистка происходит часто и процесс startup, если столкнется с блокировкой, полностью приостановит накат. Накатом занимается только он и в один поток.

Это не сюжет научно-фантастического комикса; это строгая, математически обоснованная концепция на стыке астрофизики, инженерии и поиска внеземного разума (SETI). Учёные называют её звёздной машиной.Когда речь заходит о развитых инопланетных цивилизациях, мы часто используем шкалу Кардашёва. Цивилизация типа I использует энергию в Read more ›
