+## Server settings ##
+
+- To enable the SQL general logs, log into the SQL server and do:
+  ```sql
+SET GLOBAL log_output = 'TABLE';
+SET GLOBAL general_log = 'ON';
+```
+- To enable transaction benchmarks and disable caching in the server, set these
+  server settings:
+```conf
+TRANSACTION_BENCHMARK_ENABLED=true
+CACHE_DISABLE=true
+```
+- Additionally, the server should be started via `make run-debug` (instead of
+  `make run-single`), otherwise the benchmarking will not be active.
