HP Publishs First Linux TPC-C Benchmarks

Posted by chrisd on from the the-benchmark-with-a-shady-past dept.

The first ever official TPC-C benchmark on a Linux system has been published. This was run on a cluster of 32 HP servers with Intel Xeon CPUs, running Redhat Linux and Oracle RDBMS. The system had over 18 terabytes of storage, and cost over 2 million US dollars. Performance was higher than a similar system running on MS Windows.
