Tests

We tested the results with Sysbench on a virtual server running Debian 9 (2 CPU, 2GB Ram) the table contained 10 million entries. Two configurations were tested, the MySQL default configuration and the configuration recommended by the Releem service. The tests were two-step: read (test1) only and read/write (test2).

Recommended configuration delivered a 30% boost to MySQL performance compared to the default configuration.
