Regardless of whether the computing platform to be evaluated is on-prem, containerized, virtualized, or in the cloud, it is crucial to consider several essential factors. Please refer to this tuning guide to tune the system for HammerDB: Open Source Database Tuning Guide on 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors Based Platform.

Fortunately the HammerDB TPC-C/OLTP workload intentionally has a great deal of contention between threads and is therefore ideal for testing spin-locks. Copyright (C) 2003-2018 Steve Shaw.

If you are new to running Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL and PostgreSQL TPC-C workloads with HammerDB and have needed to investigate I/O performance the chances are that you have experienced waits on writing to the Redo, Transaction Log or WAL depending on the database you are testing. A good example of how tuning is an iterative process.

“ Scalability” is a product of both the benchmarking application itself (See the post on HammerDB Architecture to see how it scales implementing multiple virtual users as threads) as well as the benchmarking workload (The TPC benchmarks that HammerDB uses have been designed specifically for this purpose and proven over decades to scale).

I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.
