Hello,

>It'd be interesting to check avg cpu usage as well

I have collected average CPU utilization numbers by collecting sar output
at interval of 10 seconds  for following benchmark:

Server specifications:
Processors:Intel® Xeon ® Processor E5-2650 (2 GHz, 8C/16T, 20 MB) * 2 nos
RAM: 32GB
Disk : HDD      450GB 10K Hot Plug 2.5-inch SAS HDD * 8 nos
1 x 450 GB SAS HDD, 2.5-inch, 6Gb/s, 10,000 rpm

Benchmark:

Scale : 16
Command  :java JR  /home/postgres/jdbcrunner-1.2/scripts/tpcc.js
 -sleepTime 550,250,250,200,200

Warmup time          : 1 sec
Measurement time     : 900 sec
Number of tx types   : 5
Number of agents     : 16
Connection pool size : 16
Statement cache size : 40
Auto commit          : false


Checkpoint segments:1024
Checkpoint timeout:5 mins


Average % of CPU utilization at user level for multiple blocks compression:

Compression Off  =  3.34133

Snappy = 3.41044

LZ4  = 3.59556

 Pglz = 3.66422


The numbers show the average CPU utilization is in the following order pglz
> LZ4 > Snappy > No compression
Attached is the graph which gives plot of % CPU utilization versus time
elapsed for each of the compression algorithms.
Also, the overall CPU utilization during tests is very low i.e below 10% .
CPU remained idle for large(~90) percentage of time. I will repeat the
above tests with high load on CPU and using the benchmark given by
Fujii-san and post the results.


Thank you,
