Update against LevelDB 1.23 upstream, fix GCC 13 build issue per https://github.com/phoronix-test-suite/test-profiles/pull/281 Closes: https://github.com/phoronix-test-suite/test-profiles/pull/281

pts/leveldb-1.0.2   [View Source]   Mon, 16 Nov 2020 15:07:26 GMT
Makes more sense having TestType be Disk rather than System...

pts/leveldb-1.0.1   [View Source]   Fri, 13 Nov 2020 12:10:55 GMT
The build works fine on macOS.

Performance Metrics

Analyze Test Configuration:

LevelDB 1.23

Benchmark: Random Fill

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 92 public results since 27 May 2023 with the latest data as of 4 December 2024.

Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.

Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (LevelDB 1.23 - Benchmark: Random Fill) has an average run-time of 2 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.
