dbbenchmark.com – MySQL (basic) connection pool support added

In this latest release I’ve added a basic MySQL connection pool to the benchmarking script which improves the method in which connections to MySQL are handled and reused. In addition, there have been some optimizations made to the thread handler functions for better debug reporting. Download the latest release now and see how your MySQL server performs against the rest of the community! Download here: download page.

dbbenchmark.com – Debian Lenny, MEMORY_ACTIVE bug fix

Quick solution to an issue that the affected Debian Lenny release: the process used to collect the MEMORY_ACTIVE_BYTES variable has been modified to correct a situation where some systems report an array of memory information instead of the expected single integer value. The bug has been fixed in revision 21 and the current download (revision 22) is available for download or svn update. As usual, you can download the MySQL dbbenchmark script here: [downloads].

Thanks goes to Brian Vowell at Evernote.com for bringing this bug to my attention. The original bug report can be found here: [link]
