The benchmark tool is intended to generate artificial yet customizable load on your database cluster to help you tweak your connection properties.
To see available switches:
cargo run -- --help
The benchmark should be run in release mode with optimizations enabled:
cargo run --release -- <benchmark options>
By default, load is generated on keys with values in key range (-k switch).
Bin data consists of random 64 bit integer values.
To write 10,000,000 keys to the database:
$ cargo run --release -- -k 10000000 -w I
To generate a load consisting 50% reads and 50% updates:
$ cargo run --release -- -k 10000000 -w RU,50
