Feature addition to network benchmark tests #2876

Open ritwikranjan opened 2 months ago

ritwikranjan commented 2 months ago

What would you like to be added: I was looking into the network benchmarking tests available under /network/benchmarks/netperf. The tests present there are pretty old and very restrictive in how we study and publish them. Adding new test is not very trivial and there are a lot of conditionals involved. I was thinking of cleaning the way these network tests are written and also add additional output options like json which can be used to save and publish much more information than it do currently.

Why is this needed: This will make the tests more useful, easy to change, and more developer-friendly.

can you put the proposal in a shareable format? google docs, hackcmd or even a PR should be valid,

ritwikranjan commented 3 weeks ago

I have opened a PR #2969 with majority of the changes I have put in the proposal and I am going to make the proposal document in an online format as well. Let me know if this link works: https://1drv.ms/w/s!AlRV0Mo2jG1lg6RkJp4NRLNw9IOZNg?e=H7Fhdd, otherwise I will port it to google docs!
