  • Status of Current testing
    • Nick will update tests results.  2 month test appears to have failed.   Will run tests again on new equipment.  
    • He will run RDF serialization improvements from Aaron Coburn  on his new hardware. 
    • Yinlin -   100K Items - 230MB files - 20 Mbs per client. Takes about 1 week.  
  • General agreement on the value of  aggregating and summarizing the results of the tests that we have run so far.
  • There is general agreement that it would be good to summarize relative improvements between runs of a given test (graphs in addition to any other details/observations)
    • Factors would be good to include in the summary: 
      • Hardware specifics
      • Total execution time
      • Average response time over the course of the execution
      • Fedora version
      • Database type/specs
      • Client count

  • Colin suggested it might be helpful to have a basic test to establish baseline conditions in the environment to account for variations in network performance characteristics,  disk performance, etc.  
  • The team sees promise in  expending effort to develop an automated system for performance tests that would
    • enable us to perform tests against on a consistent set of hardware  hardware and network resources
    • automatically run the test suite against new  tags /  branches / forked repos? 
    • focus on time-limited tests with known inputs and expected execution time framef.
  • Aaron Coburn would like a test for understanding how memory is affected by specific kinds of serializations (Turtle and N-Triples) of RDF Sources and differing degrees of concurrency.
