Performance Metrics

Analyze Test Configuration:

Facebook RocksDB 7.0.1

Test: Sequential Fill

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 121 public results since 12 March 2022 with the latest data as of 30 September 2022.

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 (Facebook RocksDB 7.0.1 - Test: Sequential Fill) has an average run-time of 10 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.
