Title
Storage Performance By: Daniel Gilloch (dgilloch@learn.senecac.on.ca)
Introduction
The goal was to attempt to install a hypervisor on an already existing machine for our koji build farm and determine whether or not this would be a viable developement solution. Some issues taken into consideration:
- Cost
- Setup
- Performance
Approach
Determining and comparing the cost of buying arm machines, vs utilizing already existing hardware.
Determining the process of setting up virtual machines and the setup of an arm machine.
A Performance benchmark using koji build as this is a real world example of the exact type of developement that will be done on the machines. Also taken into consideration is if other environmental effects on the machine could interfer with build times.
