sysbench | Cross-platform and multi-threaded benchmark tool | Mehr ...
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.
