Running queries? #40

Hi, I would like to use this tool to stress test our DB, however, the way we use it is using queries and not GET operations (get by the document key). Do you plan to support queries?

Hi, What you describe as a 'Get by the Document key' is actually a query on _id which in MongoDB is a secondary index the same as a single field index on any other field. Stress testing of your Schema, Queries and Indexes is something for which you need to write load tests for your own infrastructure and code rather than it being so much a test of the hardware. POCDriver has a few other capabilities like range queries and workflow modeling however if your plan is to verify your own query design it's not the tool for you. I strongly recommend contacting MongoDB professional services for some expert advice on testing and sizing if you feel this something you need to do.
