I can try to answer that. The initial implementation was doing that but, AHC collect a fine-grained amount of data, e.g: * it runs benchmark on all disks using different IO size. Read being default but you can also test writing (disabled by default because it's destructive) * It tests memory performance with different blocks sizes (1K, 4K, 1M, 16M, 128M, 1G, 2G, ...) * It stress test each physical CPU (and all at once) So a machine with many disks, many CPUs and a lot of memory can generate a really big amount of data. For that reason storing the blob in Swift and just link the ID in Ironic is preferable.
