This repository is an unofficial collection of benchmarking results for various SSDs with Aerospike Certification Tool (ACT) meant to help deciding on certain SSD models as deployment candidates. Please consider contributing if you can add further results.
Full benchmarking data (latency tables, raw output & test config files) is currently available for the following devices:
- Samsung 845DC PRO (400GB)
- Intel DC S3710 (200GB)
- ... more to come in future
We split data by vendor, device model, capacity and firmware revision. Inside these folders you can find 3 files (for every single benchmarking run):
- the configuration file used to run the test in /configs/
- the raw output of ACT for self-analyzing in /raw-act-output/
- compact results (latency tables) & conclusions in /results/
The filename contains information about simulated record size, simulate load ('1x' equals to 1000 writes and 2000 reads), duration, benchmarking system and whether the drive was configured with additional over-provisioning. If OP was applied, you will find the capacity in GibiBytes after over-provisioning mentioned. Example: the value 294.4G GiB on a 400GB device (=376.4GiB) mean that 21% additional over-provisioning was applied (1-($available_cap/$capacity)).
If you have run tests and want to share the results with community, please do so by sending a pull request. We would love to add more results! Because enterprise grade solid state disks tend to have very low latency, please add microsecond-histograms: yes and report-interval-sec: 1 to your act config files if possible. Raw output of a 48h run is around 160mb in size but easily compresses to a feasible size and allows for a much deeper analysis than default millisecond precision. Sticking to 1.5kb record size helps with comparable results.
