HammerDB

OCTOBER 23, 2023

HammerDB uses stored procedures to achieve maximum throughput when benchmarking your database. HammerDB has always used stored procedures as a design decision because the original benchmark was implemented as close as possible to the example workload in the TPC-C specification that uses stored procedures. performance advantage.

All of the PostgreSQL benchmark tests were run under the following conditions: Initialized pgbench using a scale factor of 100.

Some will claim that any type of RPC communication ends up being faster (meaning it has lower latency) than any equivalent invocation using asynchronous messaging. It’s less of an apples-to-oranges comparison and more like apples-to-orange-sherbet. There are more steps, so the increased latency is easily explained.

To illustrate this, I ran the Sysbench-TPCC synthetic benchmark against two different GCP instances running a freshly installed Percona Server for MySQL version 8.0.31 on CentOS 7, both of them spec’d with four vCPUs but with the second one (server B) having a tad over twice as much memory than the reference one (server A).

These strange questions came to the fore back in 2014 when Netflix was switching services from CentOS Linux to Ubuntu, and I helped debug several weird performance issues including one I'll describe here. A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. How would you _time_ time?

For 64-bit floating-point data, the 512-bit Fused Multiply-Add (FMA) instructions performs 16 floating-point operations (8 adds and 8 multiplies). Each of the two vector units can issue one FMA instruction per cycle, assuming that there are enough independent accumulators to tolerate the 6-cycle dependent-operation latency.

Likewise, object access paths must be heavily multi-threaded and avoid lock contention to minimize access latency and maximize throughput. In addition to looking at performance differences, we also want to compare ScaleOut StateServer (SOSS) to AppFabric on qualitative measures, such as features, ease of installation, and management.
