Thank you for the the details. Its pretty clear at this point that its not a fair comparison. The TPC-C driver we used (Percona's MySQL TPC-C driver) is pushing MemSQL as hard as it can and isn't following the "think time" part of the spec that artificially slows the driver down. So, this understandably gives us higher throughput numbers. We'll remove the comparison and make it clear the driver we are using isn't obeying the "think time" part of the spec.
Again, our goal here is not to have some showdown with cockroach. We don't really compete with each other. Our goal is to show the breadth of workloads MemSQL can run (fast in-memory point queries as well complex OLAP queries over large tables). None the less, we should have caught this before we published the article. I appreciate the correction.
