HammerDB is a software application for database benchmarking. It enables the user to measure database performance and make comparative judgements about database hardware and software. Databases are highly sophisticated software, and to design and run a fair benchmark workload is a complex undertaking. Derived Workloads.

Using BCP our TPROC-C build now completed almost 3X faster and tests on TPROC-H showed similar results. This post provides an introduction to the new feature added to HammerDB v4.9

HammerDB is a load testing and benchmarking application for relational databases. On high-performance multi-core systems all the supported databases can return performance in the many millions of transactions per minute. Basic Benchmarking Concepts. To benchmark a database we introduce the concept of a Virtual User.

The use case is the TPC-C benchmark but executed not on a high-end server but on a lower-spec virtual machine that is I/O limited like for example, with AWS EBS volumes. I decided to use a virtual machine with two CPU cores, four GB of memory, and storage limited to a maximum of 1000 IOPs of 16KB. TPC-C on MyRocks.

Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

In this example, we will use the CLI to run TPROC-C on a MariaDB database to illustrate the concepts. This way is typically the fastest way to determine the maximum throughput of a database with minimal configuration, and over time has been proven to show the same performance ratios between systems as a well configured fixed throughput setup.

This means that the performance metrics reported in NOPM/TPM could be different from previous releases as well as the ratio between NOPM and TPM for these workloads. Another key feature introduced with HammerDB v4.0 Therefore results from v4.0 NOPM vs TPM.

The recently revealed [Meltdown and Spectre] bugs are not just extraordinary issues of security, but also performance. The patches that workaround Meltdown introduce the largest kernel performance regressions I've ever seen. Some older kernels have the KAISER patches for Meltdown, and so far the performance overheads look similar.
