No Cap, This Memory Slaps: Breaking Through the Memory Wall of Transactional Database Systems with Processing-in-Memory

Summary: OLTPim: first end-to-end OLTP DBMS designed for processing-in-memory, using a formalized affinity model to partition database components across PIM and host memory. Adds lightweight batching to hide PIM control latency; on UPMEM achieves up to 1.71x throughput and 6.14x less memory-channel traffic vs MosaicDB. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
