These benchmarks don't seem to take HotSpot compilation into account, which means some of those numbers are for interpreted Java bytecode and some of those numbers are for native code and you don't know which are which.
The behavior of the DBs as far as resource consumption is interesting, but the numbers are meaningless.

- Periodic 17y agoI had a physics professor who used to drill into us during our labs that, "a number without an error estimate is meaningless." I didn't really get it at the time, and thought he was just being curmudgeonly. Now I understand how important it is. What's the error in these tests? The standard deviation? What was done to limit the error? It's great to see people putting numbers behind their claims, but let's get some real science back into computer science and do some serious data analysis.
