See:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/9567/the-power-8-review-challenging-the-intel-xeon-/15

Can we test:

• Percona Server 5.6
• MySQL 5.7
• MariaDB Server 10.1

1. limit to 4 physical cores
2. limit to 8 physical cores
3. as much as we have

Sysbench ro with 10 million records and 100,000 requests

Here's hoping we get good results and then should blog about it
