Server benchmark tests used in my VPS comparison posts

Server Benchmarks

By popular demand, these are the tests that I use when doing the VPS Showdown posts for my blog, joshtronic.com.

These tests aren't perfect, but I hope that by liberating them, we can make them better, together.

sysbench version used ?

Curious what version of sysbench you're using there's like 3 real major branches 0.4, 0.5 and 1.0.x. You should try using sysbench 1.0.x https://github.com/akopytov/sysbench - though the mysql tests command parameters have changed somewhat with new lua tests

I wrote a sysbench.sh benchmark script which also parses results for CSV and markdown table result format for centos usage for my Centmin Mod LEMP stack at https://github.com/centminmod/centminmod-sysbench based on sysbench 1.0.x though I just added experimental support for ubuntu/debian that you might want to check out the code for - maybe have some ideas for updating your script for sysbench 1.0.x usage.

my script by default tests 1 thread + max cpu threads i.e. cpu test on 4 cpu thread VPS running inside Ubuntu 18.04 LTS LXD guest container
