Requires a real Linux or UNIX installation. Won't run under Cygwin. At
least I could not get it to work. Got it compiled, but I am missing
something to make it work correctly.

Here are some other benchmark things:
http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,293,00.asp
Which has this link:
ftp://ftp.eweek.com/pub/eweek/pdf/printpub/benchmark/dbbenchmark_v1.zip

This article:
http://www.dcc.unicamp.br/~celio/mc527/interbase/PCweek_test.html
Has this code:
ftp://ftp.zdnet.com/pcweek/labs/0207codefile.zip
But it requires the very expensive "Benchmark Factory" product. It
might be useful to people who already have "benchmark factory".

Another open source database test:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/osdldbt

Java database benchmark routines:
http://www.firstsql.com/firstsqlj/

This site:
http://www.mipt.sw.ru/
(which does not appear to be available right now)
Has three excellent benchmark tools, ATS, LTS, OTS.
They are Windows machine centric, though, and would probably be very
hard to port to Unix environments.
