Matching work partitions to their data partitions will increase the probability of a cache hit within the server and decrease remote accesses to the database, which introduces quite a bit of latency.

将工作分区与它们的数据分区进行匹配，这将增加服务器缓存的命中概率，并减少对数据库的远程访问，后者会引起较大的延迟。

Figure 15. Increasing the probability of a near-cache hit, either through larger near caches or affinity routing, reduces the average data access time.

图15 .通过较大近缓存或者关联路由，逐渐增加近缓存命中的概率，可以减少平均数据访问时间。

The effect of increasing the probability of a cache hit in the near cache is a 42% improvement in data access time.

近缓存中缓存命中率逐渐增加，其效果是数据访问时间提高了 42%。

Does NASA have an estimate of the probability that the Earth will be hit by a potentially hazardous object (such as an asteroid) in the next 100 years?

All four appear to have the potential, however small the probability, of achieving outsized 10-20x returns should the deal hit all the downstream milestones.
