marcosvile/sysbench repository overview

⁠sysbench on Docker

Sysbench 1.0.20-r1 in Docker environment for performance and stress test in mysqlq database. You can use this environment for testing on local databases or cloud instances.

⁠Example Usage

⁠Requirement

Create a MySQL database and user for sysbench:

mysql> CREATE SCHEMA sbtest;
mysql> CREATE USER sbtest@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON sbtest.* to sbtest@'%';
Or simply use the respective MySQL's image environment variables to create the database and user when running the MySQL container.

⁠Docker

Prepare the sysbench database:

⁠PREPARE

docker run
--rm=true
--name=sb-prepare
marcosvile/sysbench
--report-interval=1
--tables=10
--table-size=1000000
--db-driver=mysql
--mysql-host=dbhostname
--mysql-port=3306
--mysql-user=dbuser
--mysql-password='password'
--mysql-db=database
/usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_only.lua
prepare

In this staging example, we set to staging 10 tables with 1000000 rows, which makes a total dataset of 2.4GB. We pass the bank connection and authentication information.

⁠TESTNG

docker run
--rm=true
--name=sb-teste
marcosvile/sysbench
--report-interval=1
--tables=10
--table-size=1000000
--range_selects=off
--db-ps-mode=disable
--threads=1000
--events=0
--time=120
--db-driver=mysql
--mysql-host=dbhostname
--mysql-port=3306
--mysql-user=dbuser
--mysql-password='password'
--mysql-db=database
/usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_only.lua
run

In this test example, we are doing a reading action on the tables prepared earlier, with the number of --threads=1000 as a thousand simultaneous readings, the --events=0 means that there is no limit on the number of readings while the test lasts, being that the --time=120 parameter defines that the test duration time is 120s.

⁠CLEAN UP

docker run
--rm=true
--name=sb-cleanup
marcosvile/sysbench
--tables=10
--table-size=1000000
--mysql-host=dbhostname
--mysql-port=3306
--mysql-user=dbuser
--mysql-password='password'
--mysql-db=database
/usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_only.lua
cleanup

In this example we clean up the environment that was created, freeing up the space used for testing.

⁠To user help of sysbench
