| Description: | SysBench is a modular, cross-platform and multi-threaded benchmark
tool for evaluating OS parameters that are important for a system
running a database under intensive load.
The idea of this benchmark suite is to quickly get an impression about
system performance without setting up complex database benchmarks or
even without installing a database at all. Current features allow to
test the following system parameters:
- file I/O performance
- scheduler performance
- memory allocation and transfer speed
- POSIX threads implementation performance
- database server performance (OLTP benchmark)
Primarily written for MySQL server benchmarking, SysBench will be
further extended to support multiple database backends, distributed
benchmarks and third-party plug-in modules. |
