Stephen, We benchmark every Clients server storage system as part of our initial project management so we know if it will meet our requirements. We use a Microsoft tool called DiskSpd and have a configuration script to test various loads on the storage system. The results are plotted against one of our "base" systems for comparison, with the results provided to our Customer. Our primary metrics are:
1. IOPS 2. MBPS 3. Avg Latency 4. Max Latency. Most of our customers configure their storage system wrong, basically as a "data warehouse" not as a "OLTP" where most packet sizes will be 2 - 4 kb. The latency of a storage system is very important, similar to how important it is for 4D's network connection. Best, Steve ********************************************* Stephen J.

It’s been some years since I checked but it did disallow publication of the results of performance tests. -- Douglas von Roeder 949-336-2902 On Fri, Apr 5, 2019 at 12:32 PM steve simpson via 4D_Tech < 4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > On Fri, Apr 5, 2019 at 3:00 PM Neal Schaefer wrote: > > > [snip] > > > > * We're getting a new Windows 2016 server for our 4DServer, and > > before I migrate, I'd like to write a benchmark speed test to run > > before and > after. > > I'd like to measure create, edit, delete records, processing, IO, > > file copying, and other relevant functions.
