Moving back to mobile-l@ It's less about it being not appropriate for perf tests and more so that you can't directly compare bare metal to a virtual instance. Load testing virts against virts is fine as long as your factor the drift in shared resourcing. As for LABS production use I'm curious about would it would take to make this work in the future. LABS is a low cost env to spin up hardware that is easily discarded after. To me this is critical in supporting our engineers teams experiment with low cost. I know that isn't something that we do currently but either we need to get production into a state where its simpler to spin up new production instances/products/extensions/etc or we allow LABS to take some small production traffic for experiments. CC'ing Yuvi to get his thoughts. --tomasz _______________________________________________ Mobile-l mailing list Mobile-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mobile-l
