Evaluating Persistent Memory Range Indexes
Summary: First comprehensive real-hardware evaluation of PM range indexes (wBTree, NV-Tree, BzTree, FPTree) on Intel Optane DC. PiBench’s unified model exposes which persistence techniques work in practice, plus key trade-offs and caveats. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
