Python is a popular programming language, especially for beginners, and consequently we see it occurring in places where it just shouldn’t be used, such as database benchmarking. We use stored procedures because, as the introductory post shows, using single SQL statements turns our database benchmark into a network test).

One of the most important concepts in analysing database performance is that of understanding scalability. When a system ‘scales’ it is able to deliver higher levels of performance proportional to the system resources available to it. In this example, we will compare MySQL 5.7.33 and MySQL 8.0.25

This post complements the previous best practice guides this time with the focus on MySQL and MariaDB and achieving top levels of performance with the HammerDB MySQL TPC-C test. Similarly for this guide MySQL can be swapped for a mySQL based databases such as MariaDB. 10 rows in set (0.02 order by c. SELECT c from sbtest where id=?

This post gives a HOWTO guide on system configuration for achieving top levels of performance with the HammerDB PostgreSQL TPC-C test. Firstly for system choice a 2 socket system is optimal for PostgreSQL OLTP performance at the time of writing. Make sure that your CPU is configured for optimal performance. Setting cpu: 0.

Coupled with stateless application servers to execute business logic and a database-like system to provide persistent storage, they form a core component of popular data center service archictectures. I say go ahead and use local state as a performance boost, so long as you’re fine to have that state wiped out at any moment.

I became the Sun UK local specialist in performance and hardware, and as Sun transitioned from a desktop workstation company to sell high end multiprocessor servers I was helping customers find and fix scalability problems. We had specializations in hardware, operating systems, databases, graphics, etc.
