I am new to the list but have an upcoming project that may appeal to this
list and I am looking for some simple feedback.
I will be putting together a methodology for testing the performance of load
balancers. Mainly, the methodology will be measuring a series of performance
characteristics, not unlike the ircache backoffs but focused on load
balancing for web servers.
Here's the meat of the message:
What performance characteristics are of use to you personally in evaluating
load balancers? Do you look at throughput or connection levels, url/get,
connection, or disconnect rates, efficiency of balancing algorithms or
something else entirely? Or is it features you are interesting in? With so
many features, which ones are you most interested in see how they affect
performance?
Feedback more than appreciated.
