Benchmarking / Stress testing your dev cloud

I'm trying to test my shapes configurations and gauge overall cloud performance. What tools are available?

Benchmarking / Stress testing your dev cloud

Hi Sherman,

Are you trying to test the performance of the virtual instance or the load/performance of the physical machine?


Thanks

I'm trying to benchamark performance of the instances, as part of the cloud. I'm trying to gather data to help plan capacity and shapes. Right now I'm using the phoronix test suite on individual instances.

Sure, the Phoronix test suite would be good for that. You can specify which tests to run, and compare the runs easily.
