Target file or database

The queries reference collection("benchx-db") so will run against the database benchx-dbif it exists otherwise they use the folder "benchx-db" on file system. The static uri of queries is set to the benchx folder.

xmlgen

Binaries are supplied for Windows and x86 Linux. For other platforms e.g. ARM you must recompile from the supplied unix.c. E.g. gcc -o xmlgen unix.c

#databases benchx - state,library benchx-db - holds xmlgen generated data for using in runs

#startup checks for the benchx database. Creates if needed from data folder. If state.xml has no /root/server/id value. One is generated and the hostname is updated.
