Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.

In this post I'll look at the Linux kernel page table isolation (KPTI) patches that workaround Meltdown: what overheads to expect, and ways to tune them. Much of my testing was on Linux 4.14.11 Some older kernels have the KAISER patches for Meltdown, and so far the performance overheads look similar. and 4.14.12 Linux 4.14.12-virtual

InnoDB is the storage engine that will deliver the best OLTP throughput and should be chosen for this test. . For anyone benchmarking MySQL with HammerDB it is important to understand the differences from sysbench workloads as HammerDB is targeted at a testing a different usage model from sysbench. innodb_file_per_table.
