JPA Database Performance Comparison - Benchmark Test: all-space-few

Choose benchmark test, operation and batch mode:

When one or more of the All filters is selected - only average normalized results are displayed. Please read Running and Results for more details.

Comparison of database storage efficiency (normalized score, higher is better)
