Can you provide/point to a repository of files to benchmark, and a set of operations to perform? The obvious being the portage tree itself, with some/all of its history (however much is necessary for the benchmarks to be meaningful), but would require a set of activities to generate a relevant benchmark.
For reference, I have a server that is not yet in production, but readying for production in the next few months, running Gentoo, on a raid-5 array of SCSI harddrives. I don't remember the precise specifications off hand, but I could provide them along with the results. Would this be useful? Would more/other hardware be necessary useful? (I have access to multiple workstations on which I could run simultaneous tests, causing transactions to become relevant and important, etc etc, and further hardware might be available here.) Hope this can be of some use to you in trying to make this evaluation. -Chandler Carruth -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
