Toru Maesaka: Testing BlitzDB on Drizzle’s Build Farm

One of many important things that the Drizzle project takes seriously is for the project sourcecode to successfully build in all our target platforms AND pass tests in them. This is not really specific to Drizzle as most open source projects would have the same policy. For example we do the same thing in memcached thanks to Dustin Sailing’s buildbot kungfu.

Yesterday, Monty Taylor gave me access to Drizzle’s Build Farm Infrastructure so that I could test BlitzDB on various Linux distributions and FreeBSD. Unfortunately most build machines didn’t have Tokyo Cabinet installed so I could only test builds on Ubuntu and Debian. Fortunately the build went fine on those platforms, though this was predictable since Ubuntu is my primary development platform. What was disturbing was getting test errors on my index test suite. I guess it’s time to put my thinking cap on and see what the problem is there.

This is a big leap towards getting BlitzDB in Drizzle’s trunk which I’m steadily working towards. I also want to benchmark BlitzDB at it’s current state with sysbench’s OLTP tests. This is still low in my priority queue but hopefully I’ll do it in the next couple of months.
