TPCC-UVa
Diego R. Llanos · ACM SIGMOD Record · 2006
This paper presents TPCC-UVa, an open-source implementation of the TPC-C benchmark version 5 intended to be used to measure performance of computer systems. TPCC-UVa is written entirely in C language and it uses the PostgreSQL database engine. This implementation includes all the functionalities described by the TPC-C standard specification for the measurement of both uni- and multiprocessor systems performance. The major characteristics of the TPC-C specification are discussed, together with a description of the TPCC-UVa implementation, architecture, and performance metrics obtained. As working examples, TPCC-UVa is used in this paper to measure performance of different file systems under Linux, and to compare the relative performance of multi-core CPU technologies and their single-core counterparts.
