Re: Older version of MySQL server are faster than newer Versions

[Miran Nadir]

Hi,
The machine is running Windows 7 pro 64bit
The machine memory is 8GB
Intel Core i5 CPU 760 processor @ 2.80GHz 2.93GHz
Note: nothing else are running on the machine, in fact it has just been formated, the only things installed are the prerequisites software for the MySQL installer like .net framework and C++ redistributables

I don't specify anything when restoring the database:
create dbname;
use dbname;
source d:\dumpeddbfile.sql

if you asking how the dumpeddbfile.sql have been created, then it is created using the command below:

mysqldump -uroot -prootpassword --result-file="d:\dumpeddbfile.sql" dbname

Did you try to reproduce the testes which I did and measure times between 5.5 and 8.0?
