Hello Hackers,
The attached patch adds pl/pgsql versions of "tpcb-like" and
"simple-update" internal test scripts
The tests perform functionally exactly the same, but are generally
faster as they avoid most client-server latency.
The reason I'd like to have them as part of pgbench are two
1. so I don't have to create the script and function manually each
time I want to test mainly the database (instead of the
client-database system)
2. so that new users of PostgreSQL can easily see how much better OLTP
workloads perform when packaged up as a server-side function
The new user-visible functionalities are two new build-in scripts -b list :
$ pgbench -b list
Available builtin scripts:
tpcb-like: <builtin: TPC-B (sort of)>
plpgsql-tpcb-like: <builtin: TPC-B (sort of) as a pl/pgsql function>
simple-update: <builtin: simple update>
plpgsql-simple-update: <builtin: simple update as a pl/pgsql function>
select-only: <builtin: select only>
which one can run using the -b / --builtin= option
pgbench -b plpgsql-tpcb-like ...
or
pgbench -b plpgsql-simple-update ...
And a flag --no-functions which lets you not to create the functions at init
there are also character flags to -I / --init ,
-- Y to drop the functions and
-- y to create the functions. Creating is default behaviour, but can
be disabled fia long flag --no-functions )
I selected Yy as they were unused and can be thought of as "inverted
lambda symbol" :)
If there are no strong objections, I'll add it to the commitfest as well
