Mark's presentation

Mark works for the Open Source Development Labs (www.osdl.org) and does database systems performance testing using a fair-use implementation of the TPC benchmarks. What are TPC benchmarks? Have a look: www.tpc.org

Mark is planning on talking about what he does on a day-to-day basis. And, of course, fielding questions. He currently works primarily with PostgreSQL, and occasionally with MySQL.

Beer at the Lucky Lab after!

There is a possibility that I will bring treats in the spirit of Thanksgiving week.

Update:

Here are the results of Mark's work:
