Then why comparing ompressed tables and uncompressed table on size ? That’s clearly not relevant ! Could you redo the same test with innodb compression ? Thanks

InnoDB compression is getting some traction, and I see quite contradictory opinions. Someone has successful deployments in productions, and someone says that compression… compressed tables CPU utilization is 7%. Obviously we have some mutex serialization problem.
