Comment on “The benchmark numbers are completely wrong for both databases”parent

Well, OK. I am not calling the author a fanboy, and i'll agree they probably aren't.

There are at least 3 things here which invalidate this post because they make the numbers uncomparable:

1. Is the hardware adequate to run the tests, or does it favor one database?

2. Are both databases tuned to the use case?

3. Running only one type of action at a time is meaningless. Contention between reads and writes is what normally drives performance stats.
