In preparation for the work that will be done on single replica set transactions, we want to explore and run some transaction processing performance benchmarks so that when development is fully under way, we will have a good way to measure any performance improvements that are made to the 'applyOps' command, which will serve as the basic foundation for single replica set transactions.

The goal is to have a POC of linkbench running on a local machine against a single replica set under at least 1 and 2-node configurations, and to collect performance metrics from these benchmarks.
