The document says it evaluates the 'expr', so I'm guessing it is only function calls and arithmetic evaluation. Although I have tried selects without any luck. It could probably be documented a little more clearly, or event better yet...a supported feature. Ed -Original Message- From:

Hello. Usually only benchmarks will show a real picture for you. Create foreign keys, perform some tests. Then temporary disable FKs using SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0 and repeat the performance measurement. Super Smack is a good tool for such kind of analysis. See:

The Mac was HFS+ journaled. Disk: the stock Apple-supplied one. The Linux machine was a default SuSE 8.0 installation. ext2 as the filesystem? No idea about journaling. No SCSI or RAID, just an internal IDE disk. Both machines are really consumer-level machines, no heavy-duty server hardware.

I can't imagine a G4 would be disk bound relative to an Intel machine, unless there is something very wrong with the disk or controller. Also, you might want to defrag your disk on the Mac. G4s have much more disk bandwidth than any Intel I've ever seen. Almost as much as my DEC Alpha. :)

I'm not entirely sure what to do about the slow insert results, they are the slowest part no matter how you configure it, it seems. I've attached some benchmark results I ran on a dual 2GHz G5 for comparison. Both MyISAM and InnoDB. Here are the insert results though: MyISAM: insert: Total

I'd be curious what the specs of the hard drives are. Using the stock drives in the Mac means you are using a drive that's about average (2MB cache, 7200RPM). I would assume they are both ATA/IDE drives. But I would guess the bottleneck is the drive. Try running top when you are running your

FYI, I've found 'iostat' to be quite useful in monitoring the drive transfer rates while benchmarking in OSX. Then again, in Panther all you really need to do is pop open Activity Monitor (formerly Process Viewer) which now has some nifty graphing for system status: cpu, disk, ram activity and
