golang-db-sql-benchmark

A collection of benchmarks for popular Go database/SQL utilities

Libraries under test

database/sql SQL Execution Benchmarks:

  • BenchmarkPreparedStatementsNone - Runs simple queries without query arguments, so database/sql doesn't need to create a prepared statement
  • BenchmarkPreparedStatementsThrowaway - Runs queries with query arguments. database/sql must create and then throwaway a prepared statement each time
  • BenchmarkPreparedStatementsSingle - Runs queries with query arguments, but creates and reuses the a single prepared statement

Dbr/Sqlx/Gorp SQL Execution Benchmarks:

Each library under test has the same set of benchmarks, just replace Dbr in the examples with Sqlx or Gorp. Each one is run with varying number of rows, N.

  • BenchmarkDbrSelectIntsN - Select rows of integers into []int64's
  • BenchmarkDbrSelectAllN - Select rows into structs using no query arguments
  • BenchmarkDbrSelectAllWithArgsN - Select rows into structs using query arguments

Dbr/Squrrel SQL Building Benchamrks

Test building (but not executing) various SQL statements

  • BenchmarkBuilderDbrSimple - Simple SQL query with dbr
  • BenchmarkBuilderDbrComplex - Complex SQL query with dbr
  • BenchmarkBuilderSquirrelSimple - Simple SQL query with squirrel
  • BenchmarkBuilderSquirrelComplex - Complex SQL query with squirrel

Run yourself

  • Use the godep tool or manually install all libraries under test
  • Create db: mysql -e "create database golang_sql_benchmarks;"
  • Create schema: mysql golang_sql_benchmarks < structure.sql
  • Run: godep go test -bench=. -benchmem
  • You can set the MySQL DSN to use by setting the GOLANG_SQL_BENCHMARKS_DSN env var (defaults to root@unix(/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock)/golang_sql_benchmarks)
