Key Findings
Zing reduces full GC pauses.
So we would expect this to reflect in average latencies and, because larger full GCs are avoided, much more so in the largest max latencies. And this is what we found.
The average was reduced by 40%. The 99.99th percentile max latency was only 8ms for Zing but 55ms for HotSpot.
We conclude that Hazelcast with Azul Zing JVM has lower latency and much lower variability for more predictable latencies. This in turn allows Hazelcast to fit into tighter response time SLAs.
These results are applicable to small heap sizes where Hazelcast is storing small amounts of data of 500MB to 1.5Gb per node and are relevant to Hazelcast and Hazelcast Enterprise.
Note that in Hazelcast Enterprise HD, we store data off heap and only run with a small heap. So a similar benefit to one in these tests with 1 to 2GB heaps would be realized.
See below for summaries of results for 1GB and 2GB heap cases and the extensive test results further down.
1GB Heap Results Summary
Average response time for Get of 0.8ms versus for Get of .5ms for Zing
