Not sure how you're seeing that. From the article it says the incremental reporting (every 60 seconds) were: > progress: 540.0 s, 171.8 tps, lat 55.105 ms stddev 946.851 > progress: 600.0 s, 24.6 tps, lat 435.693 ms stddev 2945.727 > progress: 660.0 s, 405.8 tps, lat 24.108 ms stddev 134.692 So they were getting between 24.6 and 405.8 transactions per second. On the server, he's seeing: > progress: 60.0 s, 9192.5 tps, lat 1.088 ms stddev 0.924 So the server is doing 9192.5 transactions per second. The test wasn't run as long, but the server is showing much lower latency and standard deviation, as well.
