    Postgres DELETE can actually scale

    Postgres DELETE operations have a poor reputation for performance, but the article demonstrates they can scale effectively with proper optimization. The key challenge isn't deleting workflows themselves, but managing the cascading deletions of associated data across multiple tables and handling the MVCC (multi-version concurrency control) overhead that creates dead tuples requiring vacuum cleanup. By understanding Postgres's internal deletion mechanism and optimizing cache and index performance, DELETE can be used reliably in high-throughput systems processing tens of thousands of workflows per second.

    Show HN: The coordination and durability layer for multi-agents

    CellaFlow is a coordination and durability layer for multi-agent AI systems that prevents duplicate actions, token waste, and side effects when multiple agents access the same resources concurrently or after crashes. It uses idempotency scoping, deterministic caching, and durable execution replay with RocksDB to ensure only one agent executes an action while others receive the result, eliminating redundant API calls and payment duplication.

    Sriti Core – Local-first LLM router that cascades Ollama to cloud to frontier

    Sriti Core is an open-source intelligent routing proxy for LLMs that cascades requests through local models (Ollama), cost-effective cloud providers, and frontier models only when needed. It uses task classification, semantic caching, quality gates, and reliability learning to reduce cloud API costs while maintaining latency SLOs.

    iOS and macOS CI benchmark: Avrea is 3-23x faster than GitHub Actions

    Avrea, a macOS CI service, benchmarks 3-23x faster than GitHub Actions for iOS and macOS builds by using Apple M5 Max machines with three caching layers: Xcode compilation cache, Tuist module cache, and Swift package registry. Testing on open-source apps like Firefox and Mastodon shows significant speedups, with performance gains driven by superior hardware and intelligent caching strategies.

    AI API pricing index -September 2026

    An AI API pricing index tracking 80 public pricing records across 11 providers as of September 2026, showing median input prices of $0.10–$30 per 1M tokens, output prices of $0.10–$180 per 1M tokens, and cache discounts ranging from 75%–98%. September saw 14 pricing updates including new Claude, Gemini, GPT-6, Grok, and DeepSeek models.

    Thousands of iOS apps started crashing because of Google (wait, what?)

    A bug in Google Analytics for Firebase caused thousands of iOS apps to crash simultaneously on September 29, 2026. Google fixed the issue within hours, but caching delays prolonged crashes for several additional hours, with some apps experiencing crash rates over 5,000 times higher than normal.

    How Does Instagram Instantly Know If Your Username Is Available?

    Instagram uses a layered architecture to quickly check username availability: client-side validation and debouncing reduce requests by an order of magnitude, a Bloom filter answers most queries from memory in microseconds, and a database index lookup handles the remaining cases. This design handles the high traffic from keystroke-by-keystroke checking during signup without overloading the database.

    AAPR: Absolute-Address Partial Residency

    AAPR proposes applying caching principles to execution relations in trained Transformers by recording input-dependent activation patterns and reusing them during inference. Testing on a quantized Gemma 3 4B model showed that partial residency using recorded transition mappings could reproduce oracle results across multiple task categories without modifying the original model.

    Replica-aware routing public beta

    ClickHouse has released replica-aware routing in public beta for Enterprise customers, a feature that ensures queries route to the same database replica by using a routing key (via HTTP header or SNI override). This solves issues with temporary tables and sessions that only exist on their creation replica, and enables read-after-write consistency in multi-replica deployments.

    Gargi Reflex: Autonomous Model Caching for System One Decisions

    Gargi Reflex is an autonomous caching system that learns from LLM API calls and serves repeated queries locally using smaller models, reducing latency from 3.6 seconds to 5 milliseconds. It monitors LLM responses, trains a small CPU model, and only swaps in cached responses when confidence metrics pass validation thresholds, while maintaining fallback to the original LLM for edge cases.

    Agent token spend distribution: coding versus legal work

    Coding and legal agents consume tokens differently due to their distinct task structures. System instructions and tool definitions account for significant spending, with legal work (Lexifina) prioritizing comprehensive guidance while coding (Cursor) allocates more resources to tool outputs. Efficiency optimization involves balancing request length, retry rates, and context reusability through caching and structured tool delegation.

    An Internet for the KV Cache: Rethinking Classical Infrastructure Boundaries

    A research paper proposes decoupling compute and KV Cache storage across cloud infrastructure to optimize LLM inference at scale. The approach treats KV Cache management as a content-distribution system, enabling adaptive decisions based on network bandwidth, latency, and pricing to minimize latency and cost.

    Session Revocations at Scale

    Canva manages hundreds of millions of user sessions by storing revocation records in-memory at gateways for fast lookups, but scaled this by partitioning 12-hour revocation windows into 30-minute S3 objects to avoid database overload during deployments while maintaining durability and reliability.

    What's Up with Monomorphism? (2015)

    A 2015 blog post explaining JavaScript monomorphism and polymorphism in the context of VM performance. The author clarifies that performance-related polymorphism refers to call-site polymorphism rather than classical OOP polymorphism, and introduces inline caching as an optimization technique where property lookups learn from previously encountered object shapes to avoid expensive generic algorithms.

    Poisoning a Go Cache

    This article explores Go's cache structure ($GOCACHE) and demonstrates cache poisoning—manipulating cached build artifacts to change a program's behavior without modifying source code. The author explains how action IDs map to package archives, showing how an attacker could reverse a simple program's output by poisoning the cache files.
