-# This file describes how to run MySQL benchmark suite with PostgreSQL
-#
-# WARNING:
-#
-# Don't run the --fast test on a PostgreSQL 7.1.1 database on
-# which you have any critical data; During one of our test runs
-# PostgreSQL got a corrupted database and all data was destroyed!
-# When we tried to restart postmaster, It died with a
-# 'no such file or directory' error and never recovered from that!
-#
-# Another time vacuum() filled our system disk with had 6G free
-# while vaccuming a table of 60 M.
-#
-# WARNING
-
-# The test was run on a Intel Xeon 2x 550 Mzh machine with 1G memory,
-# 9G hard disk. The OS is Suse 7.1, with Linux 2.4.2 compiled with SMP
-# support
-# Both the perl client and the database server is run
-# on the same machine. No other cpu intensive process was used during
-# the benchmark.
-#
-# During the test we run PostgreSQL with -o -F, not async mode (not ACID safe)
-# because when we started postmaster without -o -F, PostgreSQL log files
-# filled up a 9G disk until postmaster crashed.
-# We did however notice that with -o -F, PostgreSQL was a magnitude slower
-# than when not using -o -F.
-
-#
-# First, install postgresql-7.1.2.tar.gz
-
-# Adding the following lines to your ~/.bash_profile or
-# corresponding file. If you are using csh, use īsetenvī.

-export POSTGRES_INCLUDE=/usr/local/pg/include
-export POSTGRES_LIB=/usr/local/pg/lib

-PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/pg/bin
-MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/local/pg/man
-
-#
-# Add the following line to /etc/ld.so.conf:
-#
-
-/usr/local/pg/lib
-
-# and run:
-
-ldconfig
-
-# untar the postgres source distribution, cd to postgresql-*
-# and run the following commands:
-
-CFLAGS=-O3 ./configure
-gmake
-gmake install
-
-mkdir /usr/local/pg/data
-chown postgres /usr/local/pg/data
-su - postgres
-/usr/local/pg/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pg/data
-/usr/local/pg/bin/postmaster -o -F -D /usr/local/pg/data &

-# Second, install packages DBD-Pg-1.00.tar.gz and DBI-1.18.tar.gz,

-#
-# Now we run the test that can be found in the sql-bench directory in the
-# MySQL 3.23 source distribution.
-#
-# We did run two tests:
-# The standard test

-run-all-tests --comment="Intel Xeon, 2x550 Mhz, 512M, pg started with -o -F" --user=postgres --server=pg --cmp=mysql
-
-# When running with --fast we run the following vacuum commands on
-# the database between each major update of the tables:
-# vacuum anlyze table
-# vacuum table
-# or
-# vacuum analyze
-# vacuum
-
-# The time for vacuum() is accounted for in the book-keeping() column, not
-# in the test that updates the database.
-
-run-all-tests --comment="Intel Xeon, 2x550 Mhz, 512M, pg started with -o -F" --user=postgres --server=pg --cmp=mysql --fast
-
-# If you want to store the results in a output/RUN-xxx file, you should
-# repeate the benchmark with the extra option --log --use-old-result
-# This will create a the RUN file based of the previous results
-
-run-all-tests --comment="Intel Xeon, 2x550 Mhz, 512M, pg started with -o -F" --user=postgres --server=pg --cmp=mysql --log --use-old-result
-run-all-tests --comment="Intel Xeon, 2x550 Mhz, 512MG, pg started with -o -F" --user=postgres --server=pg --cmp=mysql --fast --log --use-old-result
-
-# Between running the different tests we dropped and recreated the PostgreSQL
-# database to ensure that PostgreSQL should get a clean start,
-# independent of the previous runs.
