Mike Matrigali commented on DERBY-5471:
---------------------------------------
I think performance comparisons should always be done on systems with derby
supported configurations, ie. write sync enabled. We should run the tests
again on such hardware, and seems reasonable to turn off debugging for the
comparison. I agree that I don't understand the difference in sequence
performance on trunk, it was puzzling at the time. I don't think mamta has the
hardware anymore that the original test was done, so maybe she can rerun in her
new windows environment with disk sync on and see where we are now. Need to do
this on identity columns to make sure no degredation has
happened now as expected, given the code should be same in 10.8 and trunk. For
sequences seems like your other posted results are indicating an
improvement.
I would like to see single user comparison numbers on write sync machine also.
If no one else has time I will add it to my list for testing in any upcoming
release.

> I have been trying to run org.apache.derbyTesting.perf.clients.Runner (which
> provides ways to stress test sequence generator and identity columns) on
> trunk and 10.8.2.2 RC3 to compare the performance and I find that it takes
> almost double the time for the tests to finish on trunk. Additionally, the
> identity column test consistently ran into lock timeouts on trunk. I am
> running with insane jars on trunk and 10.8.2.2 RC3. The test in question is
> not in official jars for the release candidate so I manually copied them to
> 10.8.2.2 RC3 environment during my test(basically copied the entire
> org.apache.derbyTesting.perf.clients.Runner directory from trunk to 10.8.2.2
> RC3 environment).
> Command to do sequence stress testing is as follows
> java org.apache.derbyTesting.perf.clients.Runner -driver
> org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver -init -load seq_gen -load_opts
> debugging=1,numberOfGenerators=5,tablesPerGenerator=10,insertsPerTransaction=100,identityTest=0
> -gen b2b -threads 10
> Command to do identity column stress testing is as follows
> time java org.apache.derbyTesting.perf.clients.Runner -driver
> org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver -init -load seq_gen -load_opts
> debugging=1,numberOfGenerators=5,tablesPerGenerator=10,insertsPerTransaction=100,identityTest=1
> -gen b2b -threads 10
> An average run on 10.8.2.2 RC3 for sequence stress test is about a minute and
> 46 secs. On trunk, on an average it takes 2 and half minutes
> An average run on 10.8.2.2 RC3 for identity stress test is about a minute and
> 50 secs. On trunk, on an average it takes 3minsutes and 30 secs. Also, on
> trunk, this test runs into lock timeouts.
> I was wondering if this is the right behavior. The performance should be
> better in trunk because of pre-allocation of range for sequences and identity
> columns(which defaults to 20) but unless I have missed something in my tests,
> the results don't show the performance improvement.
