Depends on goals of your benchmarking.
What are you trying to achieve?
Initialization and vacuuming each time will help achieve more consistent
best-case numbers (to reduce variance, I'd also destroy cluster completely
and clean up hardware, e.g. run fstrim in case of SSD, etc).

databases in general, so these might be very trivial questions.
1. Is it necessary to initialize pgbench(-i option) before every run to get

2. The vacuuming process after initialize consumes time, w
