Benchmark notes =============== mkfs was run on system startup. No attempt was made to age it. No special mkfs or mount options were used. sysbench is an OLTP-like benchmark. The test type was "complex" and read-only. The table size was 50,000,000 rows regardless of memory size but far exceeds the memory size of any of the test machines. sysbench was chosen because it's a reasonably complex OLTP-like benchmark with straight-forward prerequisites. The backing database was postgres. =========================================================== Machine: arnold Result: http://www.csn.ul.ie/~mel/postings/mmtests-20120424/global-dhp__io-sysbench-large-ro-ext4/arnold/comparison.html Arch: x86 CPUs: 1 socket, 2 threads Model: Pentium 4 Disk: Single Rotary Disk =========================================================== sysbench -------- Generally regresssed.
