A Look at MySQL 5.0 Performance Benchmarks

There is little doubt that two of the top requirements for any serious database management system are availability and performance. Not coincidentally, two of the three MySQL AB software priorities are reliability and performance (with the third being ease-of-use). MySQL makes it a mission to produce high-performance database software that more than meets the needs of today’s most demanding enterprise-class applications. The reputation that MySQL has earned as a fastperforming database is one that has come from both independent performance tests as well as daily serving as the backend database for high-volume applications at large customer installations.

MySQL continues its tradition of being a high-performance RDBMS with version 5.0, which was released in October, 2005. The adoption rate of version 5.0 has been extremely high, with polls showing that many have already moved to version 5.0 for production systems.

This paper takes a look at how MySQL provides the exceptional performance that it is known for and showcases a number of internal and external benchmarks that provide proof that MySQL continues to be one of the fastest databases on the market today.
