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. On MySQL, we saw a 1.5X

The HammerDB TPROC-C workload by design intended as CPU and memory intensive workload derived from TPC-C – so that we get to benchmark at maximum CPU performance at a much smaller database footprint. For TPC-C this meant enough available spindles to reduce I/O latency and for TPC-H enough bandwidth for data throughput.

Containerized data workloads running on Kubernetes offer several advantages over traditional virtual machine/bare metal based data workloads including but not limited to. Similarly, event-driven stream data processing is a lot easier to implement as microservices running on top Kubernetes. better cluster resource utilization.

This post at an entry-level discusses the options you have to improve log throughput in your benchmark environment. . Additionally for the log disk component it is latency for an individual write that is crucial rather than the total I/O bandwidth.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. Pointer Events. No browser is always fastest in every area today.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.
