Re: [PERFORM] Suggestions for benchmarking 7.4RC2 against 7.3

[Rajesh Kumar Mallah]

RC2 is running in production without any apparent problems till now.  Well its difficult to say at the moment how much speed gain is there unless the heavy duty batch SQL scripts are run by cron. Count(*) and group by on large tables are significantly (5x) faster and better error reporting has made it easier to spot the faulty data. eg in fkey violation. Will post the OSDB .15 versions' results on 7.3 & 7.4 soon. Regds Mallah.

Yes, it seems unrealistic to try to run the "client" on a separate host from the database. I got the osdb benchmark running last week, and had to separate client from server. I had to jump through a fair number of hoops including copying data files over to the server. The benchmark software needs a bit more work...
