I think the purpose is to try and prevent benchmarks being posted that are on improperly configured or optimized systems and therefore misleading, not to "hide" the performance characteristics of the database. That said, Oracle sucks and I can never imagine using their software.
- Drdrdrq 9y agoI'm sure that's just a very convenient excuse.
- Tostino 9y agoIt is, but it is also a very true one. I've seen way too many terrible benchmarks of MySQL and Postgres to remember them all, because of misconfiguration, not understanding best practices which apply to each, etc. I can see why they'd restrict them.
