Description

you need a model about what kind of changes you are expecting. "25 versions per item" is not a realistic model. better to measure how performance changes with respect to number of versions, and then come up with a data model model (i.e. a model of how the database is actually used) likelyhood that there is an insert, update, delete, or read.

I'm doing a talk on scientific benchmarking at jsconf au next month, so I can help you with this, as I'll need to generate some material for my talk anyway.

Research direction

The issue names no benchmark files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating how the current benchmark fixes “25 versions per item,” then define measurements across version counts and a workload model covering insert, update, delete, and read likelihoods; done means the benchmark reports performance changes under those stated workloads.
