Freeware benchmark tool for MySQL
All -
Awhile back, I talked about how I use Quest’s Benchmark Factory tool to benchmark new versions or engines in MySQL. Some recent good news is that Quest now has a freeware version out that let’s you run OLTP, data warehouse, and other benchmarks against MySQL in point-and-click style. You are limited to 20 virtual users, but it’s a good start! Check it out when you can.
