I am very new to virtualization and just recently installed virtual box. i want to check the performance of virtual box by running benchmarks on it..Is there any benchmarks that would run on the virtual box itself??

Normally you'll want to compare performance of benchmark/application X on OS Y to benchmark/application X on virtualized OS Y. You might then be able to tell that running your use case on Database Server on a virtual machine is ~10% slower than running it on a dedicated machine. As long as you can't run Database Server directly on hardware, you can't run it on VirtualBox without first installing an OS in your virtual machine either.
