 * Symbol voting keep.svg Long enough; GA'ed recently enough; neutral; initialisms galore (not a DYK rule but either cool or dweeby depending on your point of view); no copyvio etc. (though it is hard to avoid some similarities on techy topics without going wrong); I checked a good proportion of the sources but not all as I was beginning to get a bit "source hammered";it's cited like there's a sale on in the cite shop; hook correct and cited (though it does imply that these are "in the wild" not just proof of concept). One thing, not particularly DYK-related: it is referred to throughout as the "row hammer effect", I think you should either move it to "Row hammer effect" or let yourself go with a bit of "row hammering" and "row hammered". Good to go. Belle (talk) 10:31, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
