Sysbench CPU Benchmarking

Scripts to run Sysbench tests, parse results to create visualizations, and obtain inferences.

Checklist of Tasks

1. Run tests on bare-metal server with 32 logical cores. (Vary max-prime and number of threads)
2. Define metrics for output
   • events per second
   • total number of events
   • avg latency (ms)
   • avg number of events per thread
3. Visualize results for bare-metal server
4. Repeat experiments for an environment inside a Docker container.
5. Repeat experiments for an environment inside a Firecracker microVM.

1. Observations on a Firecracker microVM (4 and 30 logical cores)

1.1 Comparison between # of cores assigned

1.2 Base observations

2. Observations on a Bare-metal Server (32 logical cores)
