    Transaction Processing over XML (TPox): New Release (1.1).

    In January, I announced our TPoX benchmark that became public on
    tpox.sourceforg e.net. We just had its next release.

    What is new?

    (1) TPoX 1.1 contains six sub-document XML level updates.

    (2) The data generation now also produces XML fragments for
    "accounts". These are required by Update2 which inserts new accounts
    into existing custacc documents.

    (3) The workload driver has new options -pc, -cl and -m.
    -pc <ncomputes the n-th percentile of the response times for
    each transaction type.
    -cl <lcomputes the confidence interval with confidence level l
    for the response times of each transaction type.
    If -pc and/or -cl are used, then by default 50MB of main memory
    are used to collect and compute these statistics. The -m option can be
    used to change the memory.

    (4) The workload driver also has the following enhancements:

    - Enhancements to support the new updates, in particular Update2
    which inserts a new account into an existing custacc document.
    - Two new lists with possible parameter values
    - Shows throughput in transactions per seconds (in addition to the
    previous transactions per minute)
    - Shows number of result rows returned for each query if verbosity
    level 2 is used.
    - Allows XML inserts into CLOB columns (for comparison purposes).
    - Allows uniformly distributed decimal values as input for parameter
    markers in query predicates.
    - Various bug fixes (see https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?gro...5&atid=915227).

    (5) Small correction in the data generation for "orders":

    (6) Updated documentation to reflect all of the above.

    Your comments and contributions are welcome! Thanks.
