Welcome to DBbenchmarks.com, a publicly accessible database that tracks anonymously submitted data about MySQL server performance. You can use this site to see research the performance of certain types of hardware when running MySQL. Our open-source benchmarking script is free to own and use, we only ask that you allow the script to connect to this database and submit the results. All results and data collected is anonymous and viewable on this site. We only track performance data from MySQL – you can see the list on the About page.

Good idea Matt. Maybe it’d be better if you submit a list of details required like, os, mysqlversion, architecture, disk speed, raid version, my.cnf used etc!
It’s just an idea.
Good luck with the new website.

Hi Darren, these details are available on the About page (which also currently serves as the front page). Basically the benchmark script collects all of the data and submits it to the central database. Thanks for checking out the site and let me know if you need any help running the script!

A great and valuable data would be to gather the disktype and raid setup, since that is one of the biggest bottlenecks in sql. Else the results won’t be that accurate eg. when comparing a new xeon with a sata drive vs an old amd x2 with ssd drives in raid10

I agree it would be good to collect that information, however the benchmarks don’t load up I/O unless you manually specify an insert value of 100,000+ rows and a select value of 50,000+ rows. In the default configuration I/O is not heavily loaded since we’re testing CPU and MEMORY more than disk to keep the result on a more standard comparison.
