Towards Automated Performance Tuning For Complex Workloads

Summary: Automates per-class MPL and memory tuning with a feedback-based M&M algorithm to counter inter-class contention. Simulations show near-goal times for mixed workloads (short TXs, long joins) and argue for multi-mechanism control. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
