... and memory access. Measuring these two in isolation from any
(real/usual) io system is interesting but perhaps only as a curiosity -
however, it would become much more interesting if we could see how the
results change when a disk based filesystem is used (or even raw for the
big O and innodb and filesystem for postgres...).
