Understanding the Idiosyncrasies of Real Persistent Memory

Summary: Systematic, cross-technology PMEM characterization (DCPMM) with PMIdioBench reveals counter-intuitive idiosyncrasies that upend PMEM assumptions. Guides PMEM-aware design: NUMA placement and lock-free data structures for eADR/ADR across PMEM technologies. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
