MySQL stress test – while 1 request is being made during the usual MySQL test, 5 simultaneous requests are being made during this test. The maximum time is once again 15 seconds per a request. Since this test is quite heavy, it is not mandatory for the hosts. But those who complete it, and have at least 60% completed requests, will receive extra points. This test, like the PHP stress test, shows the extent to which a given host has available resources. The more resources a given host has – the better. This way the host will have the opportunity to enjoy maximum uptime and experience much less timeouts and problems in general. The result is measured in percentage of failed requests. It shows how many failed requests appeared durning the test.

NOTE: Since the result is measured by the percentage of the failed requests, I've put the test's execution time in the brackets.
