    Benchmark # 2 | Synthetic MySQL Test
This set of benchmarks is designed to test how quickly mysql is reading and writing to your database. The tests are synthetic in nature and will test the speed of your mysql install, but not necessarily the 'real world' performance of your site. Using this test before and after tweaks to the mysql my.cnf file will help you determine if your tweaks have enhanced your database performance. You should never rely soley on sythetic tests; you also need to use our page loading test to determine if visitors to your website will see a benefit from your tweaks.

 Testing Guidelines:  
  • Always run tests when your server is least busy
    •  
  • Run each test several times and take the best score
    •  
  • Remember to write down any tweaks you make and the date


    • The tests are each run multiple times and the average of each, along with the total is returned. Upon completion you can save your results so that after you make tweaks you can compare between tests.
