I have started running new sysbench series last week. So far I have results
for MariaDB-5.3-bzr (r3481), MariaDB-5.5-bzr (r3354) and MySQL-5.1.
MySQL-5.5 is still running.

Sysbench RO results look very promising so far. Maria 5.3 is fastest now and
Maria 5.5 is very comparable to MySQL 5.1. For Maria 5.3 there is now only a
very small difference between InnoDB and XtraDB. For Maria 5.5 InnoDB is
significantly faster.

Results for Sysbench RW do not look good :(  I see significant stalls and
they seem to be worse with Maria 5.5.

Those could however be caused by configuration (5.3/5.5 use different
configuration of I/O parameters due to different feature set)

See yourself in attached plots.
