CXL Memory Performance for In-Memory Data Processing

Summary: Analyzes PCIe-based cache-coherent CXL-attached memory for in-memory DBs, measuring interleaved access across multiple CXL devices for basic patterns, column scans and B+trees. Shows workload-aware column placement can store >80% of table data in CXL with ~85% throughput of local-only memory. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
