Okay, focusing on 'thousands' now, I know 'millions' is not good metaphor
here. I also know 'cells' functionality is nova's solution for large scale
deployment. But it also makes sense to find and re-produce large scale
problems in relatively small scale deployment.
@Sandy
All-in-all,
I would say that supporting millions of compute nodes is not a current
priority for nova... We are actively working on improving support for
thousands of compute nodes, but that is via cells (so each nova deploy
except the top is still in the hundreds of nodes).
I worry about pursuing academic

Hi all,
Is there a way to simulate thousands or millions of compute nodes? Maybe we
could have many fake nova-compute services on one physical machine. By this
other nova components would have pressure from thousands of compute
services and this could help us find more problem from large-scale
