Performance testing

There are many things we can measure with performance testing. The chair has particular areas of interest but welcomes others to join with their own topics.

The following list started with the chair's topics, but was expanded as others joined in.

• Opening: Areas of performance to test
• ZFS resilver rates
  • There are many myths about resilver rates but few data regarding relative speeds
  • e.g. a 10 disk raidz3 versus a 10 disk raidz2, what is the resilver time?
  • at 25% full, 50%, 75%, 85%?
  • when the system is idle, when under load?
  • how does 10×2.5TB drives compare to 5 x 5TB drives?
  • there are many ideas and suggestions, but nothing comparing configurations on a relative basis

In order to attend you need register for the developer summit as well as by email for the session and be confirmed by the working group organizer. Follow the guidelines described on the main page or what you received by email. For questions or if in doubt ask the session chairs.

Please do NOT add yourself here. Your name will appear automatically once you have received the confirmation email. You need to put your name on the general developer summit attendees list though.
