I was hoping for something more like,

"To overcome these self-inflicted challenges, DolphinDB stopped hiring noob developers trying to make HFT systems in Python, instead preferring run-of-the-mill C/C++ developers who understand heap vs stack allocation".

Edit: oh wow, check the poster's previous submissions :)

Thanks for saving me a read.

I love the open-ended nature of the title tho.

It doesn't say how an effective, efficient, nor industrial low-lantency engine works, nor what a microsecond level engine is (insofar as a label cutoff).

Honestly, boring heap/stack practices with mindfulness about the application workflow and memory management therein goes miles.

That certainly is a bag of words. I'll congratulate anyone who can convincingly explain why the TCMalloc design diagram is in this blog post.

This article feels like it was "expanded" with an LLM.
