I noticed an interesting benchmark at tweakers.net that shows mysql not scaling very well on hyperthreading and multicore cpus (see links at end of email).
Does anyone know what engine they are using for their tests? (Innodb, myisam, berkdb heheh) In fact they seem to show that postgres is a faster db overall. This goes against my personal experience where I benchmarked a real world app we have and found mysql 10 to 100 times faster, and that was ignoring both postgres poor connection performance and the hideous vacuum rigmarole. But that was 2 years ago, maybe postgres performance has finally caught up? Any other recent benchmark links? http://tweakers.net/reviews/657 http://tweakers.net/reviews/646/10 ds -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
