Pgbench-org - original pgbench
Pgbench-1000 - changed pgbench with a record size of 1000.
5 min - pgbench test carried out for 5 min.
15 min - pgbench test carried out for 15 min.
The checkpoint_timeout and checkpoint_segments are increased to make sure no checkpoint happens during the test run.
>From the above readings it is observed that,
1. There a performance dip in one or two threads test, the amount of dip reduces with the test run time.
2. For two threads pgbench-1000 record size test, the fpw compress performance is good in 15min run.
3. More than 50% WAL reduction in all scenarios.
All these readings are measured with pgbench query mode as simple.
Please find the attached sheet for more details regarding machine and test configuration.
