Hi, We are using dbt2 to check performance of postgresql 8.4 on Linux64 machine. When we increase "TERMINALS PER WAREHOUSE" TPM value increase rapidly but rampup time increase too , dbt2 estimated rampup time calculation do not work properly that’s why it run the test for wrong duration i.e. 1. Settings : DATABASE CONNECTIONS: 50 TERMINALS PER WAREHOUSE: 10 SCALE FACTOR (WAREHOUSES): 200 DURATION OF TEST (in sec): 7200 Result : Response Time (s) Transaction % Average : 90th % Total Rollbacks % ------------ ----- --------------------- ----------- --------------- ----- Delivery 3.96 0.285 : 0.023 26883 0 0.00 New Order 45.26 0.360 : 0.010 307335 3082 1.01 Order Status 3.98 0.238 : 0.003 27059 0 0.00 Payment 42.82 0.233 : 0.003 290802 0 0.00 Stock Level 3.97 0.245 : 0.002 26970 0 0.00 ------------ ----- --------------------- ----------- --------------- ----- 2508.36 new-order transactions per minute (NOTPM) 120.1 minute duration 0 total unknown errors 2000 second(s) ramping up 2.

To fix and sync with the rampup time, I have made a minor change in the dbt2-run-workload script i.e. --- dbt2-run-workload 2010-07-02 08:18:06.000000000 -0400 +++ dbt2-run-workload 2010-07-02 08:20:11.000000000 -0400 @@ -625,7 +625,11 @@ done echo -n "estimated rampup time: " -do_sleep $SLEEP_RAMPUP +#do_sleep $SLEEP_RAMPUP +while ! grep START ${DRIVER_OUTPUT_DIR}/*/mix.log ; do + sleep 1 +done +date echo "estimated rampup time has elapsed" # Clear the readprofile data after the driver ramps up. What is rempup time ? And what do you think about the patch?. Can you please guide me?. Thanks. Best Regards, Asif Naeem Hotmail: Trusted email with Microsoft’s powerful SPAM protection.
