designing, building and maintaining computer controlled

<dd>This is kinda new to me - Just so I am
clear - unganged systems would
perform better if I have say - a caching
system with limited threads each
pined to a specific core (we do this for
processor cache anyway) while
ganged systems would perform better it I was
spinning up a new thread for
each request and had a large amount (say
768GB) of ram running something
like PostgreSQL where threads are being
fired up and down many thousands
of times a second but the data they seek is
mostly in main memory.<br>

it do so, even in the days of
