I for one see a lot of value in this proposal. I think it would be
great to revive DBT-5, since TPC-E has a number of interesting
bottlenecks that we'd likely learn something from. It's particularly
good at stressing concurrency control, which TPC-C really doesn't do.
It's also a lot easier to run smaller benchmarks that don't require
lots of storage space, but are nevertheless correct according to the
spec.
