I did run 4096trx on 7.2b4 with -s 1, best 4-of-6

512trx 4096trx ratio
1 180.59 90.15 2.00
2 221.52 80.92 2.74
4 203.72 75.60 2.69
8 179.54 69.29 2.59
16 156.68 63.15 2.48
32 123.48 57.73 2.14
64 89.99 54.14 1.66
128 61.84 48.97 1.26

so it seems that large number of of transactions degrades tps
performance faster than
connection setup overhead.

the

I'll try running the whole suite again with higher number of
transactions i a few days
