If we were to select the most important MySQL setting, if we were given a freshly installed MySQL or Percona Server for MySQL and could only tune a single MySQL variable, which one would it be? To be fair, that is also true with PostgreSQL; it hasn’t been tuned either, and it, too, can also perform much better.

So if you want to design a system that will offer good real-world performance, it’s really useful to have benchmarks that accurately represent real-world workloads. This benchmark can synthetically generate more precise key-value queries that represent the reads and writes of key-value stores to the underlying storage system.

Let’s now look at the operating system level. If we want to look at a response time based view of read vs write on an operating system, we can check out this disk IO Load graph. You can see in this case it happens to match the IO activity graph, with storage taking more time to serve write requests versus read requests.
