Abstract
Since many existing techniques for exploiting CPU caches in the implementation of B-tree indexes have not been discussed in the literature, most of them are surveyed. Rather than providing a detailed performance evaluation for one or two of them on some specific contemporary hardware, the purpose is to survey and to make widely available this heretofore-folkloric knowledge in order to enable, structure, and hopefully stimulate future research
