Nov 1, 2025

November 2025 (ClickHouse/ClickBench) focused on delivering a more accurate, scalable benchmarking workflow and expanding hardware coverage, while tightening reliability and operational efficiency. Key features delivered include a complete overhaul of the Arc Benchmarking Tool to run a Go-based benchmarking binary with true cold-start measurements (restarting Arc and clearing OS cache) and improved install/logging to support consistent cold runs. The benchmark configuration and results were refreshed across multiple instance types (including c6a.4xlarge, c6a.2xlarge) and expanded to cover ARM/Graviton3 hardware (e.g., Graviton3-based c8g.metal-48xl). Major stability and quality improvements include Arc data path cleanup (removing an unnecessary directory level), enhanced JSON escaping in SQL queries, a health-check delay to improve reliability, and logging of error response bodies for easier debugging. The benchmarking workflow now checks for an existing API token before generating a new one, reducing unnecessary token requests and improving error handling when tokens are missing or invalid. Impact: These changes provide more accurate, reproducible benchmarks, broaden hardware coverage for performance validation, reduce operational overhead, and accelerate feedback cycles for optimization. Demonstrated technologies include Go-based tooling, ARM/Graviton3 benchmarking, improved logging and diagnostics, health-check instrumentation, and token-aware automation.

Oct 1, 2025

October 2025 performance summary for ClickBench (ClickHouse/ClickBench). Delivered end-to-end Arc Benchmark Automation and API-based Benchmark Execution, enabling reproducible, Arc API-driven performance assessments with authentication token management, data loading integrations, environment setup, logging, CPU core auto-detection, and robust error handling. Introduced Arc Values support to extend data handling for arc-specific benchmarking scenarios. Enhanced Benchmark Results Management and Metadata with binary results handling, cleanup of stray artifacts, and time-series tagging to improve traceability and CI feedback. Improved reliability and reproducibility through fixes including token creation, API environment passing, disabling query caching, and data loading/output clarity improvements. These changes collectively accelerate performance validation, reduce manual work, and provide more credible, CI-friendly benchmarks for Arc integration.
