[LLVMdev] Performance tracking and benchmarking infrastructure BoF

[Kristof Beyls]

As preparation for the performance tracking and benchmarking infrastructure
BoF next week at the dev meeting, Chad, Chris, Tobias, Renato and myself
have started brainstorming and trying to somewhat organize the topics we
feel should be discussed.

 

We've got a google docs document with an outline of what we think should be
discussed. We very much welcome comments, suggestions and feedback on it
before the BoF, so that we can make the best possible use of the allocated
BoF time next week.

 

At the moment, the top-level topics we'd like to discuss are:

* Producing low-noise performance numbers

* Easily interpreting performance numbers

* Acting on Regressions

* Enhanced data collection

* Getting a stable and high-quality warning system

* Making a larger part of the community care

* Guidelines for setting up a performance tracking bot

* Making performance tracking server more stable and easier to administer

 

More details are in the google docs document, accessible through the link
below. Feel free to add comments directly to the google docs

document, or by replying to this email.
