# Benchmarks and Metrics

Dolt publishes benchmarks for its correctness and performance relative to other relational databases. Additional benchmarks will be added over time.

To learn more, click on a subsection heading.

* [SQL correctness](/sql-reference/benchmarks/correctness.md) tests Dolt's query engine against the `sqllogictest` suite for correctness issues.
* [Server latency](/sql-reference/benchmarks/latency.md) uses `sysbench` to compare Dolt's read and write latencies against MySQL.
* [Import latency](/sql-reference/benchmarks/import.md) uses a custom benchmark to compare Dolt's bulk import performance against MySQL's `LOAD DATA` command's performance.
