New DSS benchmark available (or nearly).
07/07/06 20:33 Filed in: Swingbench
Over the last few days I've been putting together
swingbench's first DSS benchmark. It uses datagenerator to create the
schema and then a new config file to generate
the load. The only reason I haven't posted it
yet is that our cluster is currently in pieces
and is slowly being put back together so
I'haven't had a chance to test it on a large
scale machine. Im certain of a few things. It
should eat I/O and CPU. I haven't included any
materialized views to improve perfomance simply
because in the past I've been asked for a
benchmark to test the I/O sub system, I think
this is it. It currently needs a little work to
get it to scale to large sizes but I'll post
instructions. The ultimate aim is to deliver
three sizes 100GB, 500GB and 1TB. There's no
reason why they couldn't be bigger its just that
I'll lack the resource to test it. If you'd like
to give it a spin drop me a line and I'll send
you the code. Regardless I hope to post the code
by the end of the week.
