Vinziii,

I like all the 'i's in your name, btw-- you can try sql-bench. I haven't
given't it much love, but it does work and is certainly one way to
benchmark.

https://launchpad.net/sql-bench

Just to add my $.02, you might check here:
http://wiki.drizzle.org/Automation_Documentation

It lists the benchmarks we run / other tools we use and how to install them.
We use sqlbench, sysbench, and dbt2.

We have made some changes to dbt2 to work with Drizzle - if you are interested in using this, let us know and we'll see about making it available.

Hope this helps,
Patrick
