I just wanted to share that we're on the brink of having an automated test on our Scalable Test Platform (http://www.osdl.org/stp/) that features our DBT-2 workload, a fair use implementation of the TPC-C, that uses PostgreSQL 7.4 and LVM2 on Linux on our 8-processor systems. Currently the test only works with a scale factor of 1 warehouse, which amounts to about a 500MB of raw data. You can request tests at this scale factor at the above link and typing "-w 1" in the "Optional Script Parameters" field. We're working through some Linux kernel related issues so we can run more interesting workloads against larger databases. I'm planning to allow an option for either a 100 and 200 warehouse database to be built. I wanted to let people know early for feedback on the kind of data that is reported from the test. You can see a sample of a test report here: http://khack.osdl.org/stp/284353/ Thanks! -- Mark Wong - - markw@osdl.org Open Source Development Lab Inc - A non-profit corporation 12725 SW Millikan Way - Suite 400 - Beaverton, OR 97005 (503) 626-2455 x 32 (office) (503) 626-2436 (fax) http://developer.osdl.org/markw/ _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
