Object Oriented Database vs Relational Database

Benchmark Parameters

The benchmark is designed around several basic components:

  • Root: The number of tree roots.
  • Depth: The number of child levels below the root level.
  • Fanout: The number of children at each level of the tree.

The programs accept parameters to determine the depth and fanout. In the previous illustration, Part A tree has a depth of 2 and fanout of 3 for Part A since it has Part A1, A2, and A3. In each run of the benchmark programs, six part roots were created (Part A- Part F).
