# Size distributions for memory functions under specific workloads This folder contains a set of files that are included from `libc/benchmarks/MemorySizeDistributions.cpp`. Offloading this data to individual files helps - C++ editors (large arrays are usually not well handled by editors), - and allows processing data by other tools to perform analysis or graph rendering. ## Format Most filenames are of the form `{MemoryFunctionName}{WorkloadID}.csv`. They contain a single line of comma separated real values representing the probability that a particular size occurs. e.g. - `"0,1"` indicates that only the size `1` occurs, - `"0.5,0.5"` indicates sizes `0` and `1` occur with the same frequency. These files usually contains sizes from `0` to `4096` inclusive. To save on space trailing zeros are discarded. ## Workloads As identified in the [automemcpy](https://research.google/pubs/pub50338/) paper: - `GoogleA` <-> `service 4` - `GoogleB` <-> `database 1` - `GoogleD` <-> `storage` - `GoogleL` <-> `logging` - `GoogleM` <-> `service 2` - `GoogleQ` <-> `database 2` - `GoogleS` <-> `database 3` - `GoogleU` <-> `service 3` - `GoogleW` <-> `service 1` `Uniform384To4096` is an additional synthetic workload that simply returns a uniform repartition of the sizes from `384` to `4096` inclusive. ## Note Except for `GoogleD`, all distributions are gathered over one week worth of data.
