Description: | resctl-bench is a collection of whole-system benchmarks to evaluate resource
control and hardware behaviors using realistic simulated workloads.
Comprehensive resource control involves the whole system. Furthermore, testing
resource control end-to-end requires scenarios involving realistic workloads
and monitoring their interactions. The combination makes benchmarking resource
control challenging and error-prone. It's easy to slip up on a configuration
and testing with real workloads can be tedious and unreliable.
resctl-bench encapsulates the whole process so that resource control benchmarks
can be performed easily and reliably. It verifies and updates system
configurations, reproduces resource contention scenarios with a realistic
latency-sensitive workload simulator and other secondary workloads, analyzes
the resulting system and workload behaviors, and generates easily
understandable reports. |
