Whatever Postmark does, this looks pretty besides the point.
why's that? postmark is one of the standard benchmarks...
Are these actual transactions with the "D"urability guarantee?
3000/s doesn't look too much like you're doing synchronous I/O (else
figures around 70/s perhaps 100/s would be more adequate), and cache
exercise is rather irrelevant for databases that manage real (=valuable)
data...
Data:
204.62 megabytes read (8.53 megabytes per second)
271.49 megabytes written (11.31 megabytes per second)
looks pretty I/O bound to me, 11.31 MB/s isn't exactly your latest DDR
RAM bandwidth. as far as the synchronous I/O question, Reiser4 in
this case acts more like a log-based FS. That allows it to "overlap"
synchronous operations that are being submitted by multiple threads.
