These tests are done on using an MSA-30 drive enclosure with 15k-SCSI drives.  The testing framework is sysbench oltp.  The test names are hopefully fairly obvious:  selects = single selects, reads = range tests, xacts = transaction tests, etc.   Transaction tests are counting individual queries, not transactions.   The "Rdm" tests are using a uniform distribution, whereas the non-'Rdm' tests are 75% of queries are using 10% of the rows.
