Thread: BUG #1238: postgres option -Q used in src/test/bench
The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 1238 Logged by: A Wu Email address: sunwukong@ieee.org PostgreSQL version: 8.0 Beta Operating system: Linux 2.6.7-gentoo-r14 x86_64 Description: postgres option -Q used in src/test/bench Details: src/test/bench/create.sh and src/test/bench/runwisc.sh both invoke "postgres" with a -Q option which is not supported in 8.0 Beta1. Deleting -Q from both files allows the scripts to run to completion.

These scripts really need to be thrown away or rewritten entirely.
Benchmarks against a standalone backend are not interesting in the real
world. I doubt anyone has tried to run these in the past five years...

I removed the -Q mention in the comments but Tom already fixed this in early September. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- PostgreSQL Bugs List wrote: > > The following bug has been logged online: > > Bug reference: 1238 > Logged by: A Wu > > Email address: sunwukong@ieee.org > > PostgreSQL version: 8.0 Beta > > Operating system: Linux 2.6.7-gentoo-r14 x86_64 > > Description: postgres option -Q used in src/test/bench > > Details: > > src/test/bench/create.sh and src/test/bench/runwisc.sh both invoke > "postgres" with a -Q option which is not supported in 8.0 Beta1.

Actually, I deliberately left that comment alone, since it appeared to
me to be a statement of historical fact --- ie, that *was* what they did
for some now-forgotten paper --- not a recommendation of how to do
things now. It's a judgment call though.

It's a judgment call though. Yea, I just remove the entire comment. It is just too long to be relevant, no? -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073
