sysbench
Scriptable database and system performance benchmark
sysbench is a scriptable multi-threaded benchmark tool based on LuaJIT. It is most frequently used for database benchmarks, but can also be used to create arbitrarily complex workloads that do not involve a database server. sysbench comes with the following bundled benchmarks:
oltp_*.luaA collection of OLTP-like database benchmarks.
fileioA filesystem-level benchmark.
cpuA simple CPU benchmark.
memoryA memory access benchmark.
threadsA thread-based scheduler benchmark.
mutexA POSIX mutex benchmark.
It includes features such as:
Extensive statistics about rate and latency is available, including latency percentiles and histograms.
Low overhead even with thousands of concurrent threads.
sysbenchis capable of generating and tracking hundreds of millions of events per second.New benchmarks can be easily created by implementing pre-defined hooks in user-provided Lua scripts.
