Hi Andy, things I find odd:
- Replicacount=1 for mongo and couchdb. How is that a realistic benchmark? I always want at least 2 replicas for my data. Maybe thats just me. - On the Mongo Config slide they said they disabled journaling. Why do you disable all safety mechanisms that you would want in a production environment? Maybe they should have added /dev/null to their benchmark ;-) - I dont see the replicacount for Cassandra in the slides. Also CL is not specified. Imho the important stuff is missing in the cassandra configuration. - In the goals section it said "more data than RAM". But they only have 12GB data per node, with 15GB of RAM per node! I am very interested in a recent cassandra-benchmark, but I find this benchmark very disappointing. cheers, Christian On Mon, Oct 1, 2012 at 5:05 PM, Andy Cobley <acob...@computing.dundee.ac.uk>wrote: > There are some interesting results in the benchmarks below: > > http://www.slideshare.net/renatko/couchbase-performance-benchmarking > > Without starting a flame war etc, I'm interested if these results should > be considered "Fair and Balanced" or if the methodology is flawed in some > way ?
