In most use cases, workloads are usually mixed where there is a combination of uploads and restores occurring. Mixed workload studies of the following percentages: 50-50, 80-20 and 20-80 were conducted and the results presented in this section provide a reference of GeoDrive performance for these types of workloads.
The performance for 50/50 workloads is shown in Figure 13. The maximum transaction rate achieved was 584.99 Files/second for file sizes of 100K and the maximum throughput was 558.27 MB/second for files of 10M in size.
Figure 14 illustrates the performance of 20% restores and 80% uploads. As can be seen from the graph, the peak Files/second achieved was 378.95 for file sizes of 10K and peak throughput was 430.33 MB/second for 100M sized files.
For the mixed workload of 80% restores and 20% upload, the peak transaction rate attained was 733.66 Files/second for 10K sized files and peak throughput was 1301.75 MB/second for files 100M in size. The results were affected by the large percentage of restores in this workload compared to the percentage of uploads done. Figure 15 shows the results from this test.
