I need to run performance testing of database systems using C++ client (console). C++ client and database system should be run on the same computer under Linux. Unfortunately my main system is Windows (I cannot change it) and Linux is run in Virtual Box. I'd like to measure time in C++ program using the client.I'd like to ask you what Linux distribution should I use? I'd like to have as good tests as it possible (I mean I would like to eliminate any unwanted processes and behaviors from system). I think it should by some light system. And maybe you can recommend some settings of the system?
