InterSystems has performed various system and application benchmarks to determine the potential performance impact after the corrections for Meltdown have been applied.
Overall our tests have shown at worst a performance degradation of less than 2% and in some cases slightly better performance, but within the margin of error of testing. All tests confirm that the specific performance impact to a deployed application is directly related to how this application is using system resources. Specifically, this means that in certain cases (e.g. a query) a larger performance impact is possible.
