H-Rocks: CPU-GPU accelerated Heterogeneous RocksDB on Persistent Memory

Summary: H-Rocks merges CPU-GPU to accelerate RocksDB on persistent memory, offloading hot-paths to the GPU while preserving compatibility via key-value versioning. Uses sub-batching and minimizes CPU-GPU data movement, delivering 3–18x YCSB gains over CPU-based pKVS. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
