Description:

Benchmark performance of LXD 👑

This tool lets you benchmark various actions on a local LXD daemon. No cap — it's literally just here to time stuff.

It can be used just to check how fast a given LXD host is, to compare performance on different servers or for performance tracking when doing changes to the LXD codebase. it's giving "science but make it slay" 🧚

A CSV report can be produced to be consumed by graphing software. 📈✨

Usage:

lxd-benchmark [command]
