Ben Maurer will discuss the server workloads that Facebook runs across its fleet. Ben will talk about work Facebook has done in various systems areas such as:

- Memory management: improvements we've made to memory allocation performance with jemalloc, reducing fragmentation in programs with large numbers of threads, and increasing performance with the use of NUMA.
- Synchronization: LifoSem -- a last, in first out semaphore built on top of futex
- Scheduling: using CPU queuing delay to measure capacity
- Networking: measuring network performance with TCP tracepoints.
