Hi Stefan, pgbench sends each query (per connection) and waits for the reply before sending another. Do we know whether sysbench does that, or if it just stuffs the kernel's IPC buffer full of queries without synchronously waiting for individual replies? I can't get sysbench to "make" for me, or I'd strace in single client mode and see what kind of messages are going back and forth.
