# The benchmarks/sysbench,mysql port

## sysbench-0.4.8p11-mysql – modular, cross-platform and multi-threaded benchmark tool

## Description

    SysBench is a modular, cross-platform and multi-threaded benchmark tool
    for evaluating OS parameters that are important for a system running a
    database under intensive load.

    The idea of this benchmark suite is to quickly get an impression about
    system performance without setting up complex database benchmarks or
    even without installing a database at all.

    Current features allow to test the following system parameters:

        * file I/O performance
        * scheduler performance
        * memory allocation and transfer speed
        * POSIX threads implementation performance
        * database server performance (OLTP benchmark)

    Primarily written for MySQL server benchmarking, SysBench will be
    further extended to support multiple database backends, distributed
    benchmarks and third-party plug-in modules.
