3. Copy the link to `clickhouse` binary for amd64 or aarch64.
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
4. ssh to the server and download it with wget:
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
2021-04-22 01:20:03 +00:00
# These links are outdated, please obtain the fresh link from the "commits" page.
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
# For amd64:
2020-09-21 23:06:19 +00:00
wget https://clickhouse-builds.s3.yandex.net/0/e29c4c3cc47ab2a6c4516486c1b77d57e7d42643/clickhouse_build_check/gcc-10_relwithdebuginfo_none_bundled_unsplitted_disable_False_binary/clickhouse
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
# For aarch64:
2020-09-21 23:06:19 +00:00
wget https://clickhouse-builds.s3.yandex.net/0/e29c4c3cc47ab2a6c4516486c1b77d57e7d42643/clickhouse_special_build_check/clang-10-aarch64_relwithdebuginfo_none_bundled_unsplitted_disable_False_binary/clickhouse
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
# Then do:
chmod a+x clickhouse
```

5. Download benchmark files:
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/master/benchmark/clickhouse/benchmark-new.sh
chmod a+x benchmark-new.sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/master/benchmark/clickhouse/queries.sql
```
2020-09-21 23:07:12 +00:00
6. Download test data according to the [Yandex.Metrica dataset ](../getting-started/example-datasets/metrica.md ) instruction (“hits” table containing 100 million rows).
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
2020-12-13 18:06:27 +00:00
wget https://datasets.clickhouse.tech/hits/partitions/hits_100m_obfuscated_v1.tar.xz
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
tar xvf hits_100m_obfuscated_v1.tar.xz -C .
mv hits_100m_obfuscated_v1/* .
```
2020-09-21 23:07:12 +00:00
7. Run the server:
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
./clickhouse server
```
2020-09-21 23:07:12 +00:00
8. Check the data: ssh to the server in another terminal
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
./clickhouse client --query "SELECT count() FROM hits_100m_obfuscated"
100000000
```
2020-09-21 23:07:12 +00:00
9. Edit the benchmark-new.sh, change `clickhouse-client` to `./clickhouse client` and add `--max_memory_usage 100000000000` parameter.
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
mcedit benchmark-new.sh
```
2020-09-21 23:07:12 +00:00
10. Run the benchmark:
2020-07-20 19:12:02 +00:00
```bash
./benchmark-new.sh hits_100m_obfuscated
```
2020-09-21 23:07:12 +00:00
11. Send the numbers and the info about your hardware configuration to clickhouse-feedback@yandex-team.com
