I love short benchmarks like this as I can disassemble the resulting binary and ensure that the compiled instructions match my expectations, and the compiler hasen't messed with it. ## 6. In 2019 myself and others tested kvm-clock and found it was only about 20% slower than tsc. #include <sys/time.h>

For instance, if I’m reading a paper from 2019, a popular song from that year could start playing. Perhaps future AI tool developers could use Swift Papers as a benchmark to assess how well their tool performs on an example real-real-world programming task. Right now, widely-used benchmarks for AI code generation (e.g.,

HammerDB MySQL and MariaDB Best Practice for Performance and Scalability

HammerDB

OCTOBER 12, 2018

For anyone benchmarking MySQL with HammerDB it is important to understand the differences from sysbench workloads as HammerDB is targeted at a testing a different usage model from sysbench. As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. innodb_file_per_table.
