These proteins slide past each other in the presence of calcium…

(AC), and impedes the application performance from scaling (AC ∝ 1 / WT) if a workload is bursty and highly parallelized. It is apparent that the wait time to enter a critical section is a function of the CS’s size (CSS) and the number of waiting threads (NWT) i.e. WT ∝ CSS * NWT. Furthermore, the work done (IO completed) is proportional to the trips made through the CSSs (i.e. IOs completed ∝ NWT). Therefore, existence of CSSs in IO path, high wait time, and large CSS’s size affects an…
