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.
