Re: mongo.pl PHASE_* options question

["E. Gryaznova" <grev@namesys.com>]

Hello,

unfortunately this is the very old mongo version. Please try the new one :

http://www.namesys.com/benchmarks/mongo-2003.06.24.tar.gz

which has an ability to selectively turn phases on/off.

The new options documentation will be added tomorrow.

Thanks,
Lena.
