Running LSST baseline queries in MonetDB

========================================

See blog post ... for further details.

You need to have several LSST csv files (with artificial data), 

which can be requested from the LSST DM team.

MonetDB

-------

Run the installation script ``install_monetdb.sh``, 

start the daemon and create a database instance.

Loading

-------

The python load script ``load_lsst_data.py`` defines the 

database schema with table and partition defintions

and loads the csv files into the database.

Running queries

---------------

Two shell scripts run the queries in a hot and cold mode

``hotloop.queries.sh`` and ``coldloop.queries.sh``, resp.

The averages and standard deviations

of ten runs are reported in the log files

Plotting results

----------------

Use the python script ``plot_baselines.py`` to plot a bar chart 

of the results in comparison with the S15 MySQL results.
