Summary of virtual machine performance testing experience (1)

In virtualization applications, it is very important to evaluate the performance of virtual machines. Evaluation of the performance of virtual machines indicates the direction of production applications of virtual machines.
The performance evaluation of virtual machines should include:
1) cpu computing capability
2) network I/O performance
3) disk I/O performance
What test tools should be used? The selection of different test tools has different effects on the test results. I personally think that the selection of test tools should meet the following conditions:
1) cross-platform support. It is best to use the same tool for testing on linux and windows systems. In this way, different platforms can use the same tool for testing to ensure that the test results are comparable.
2) supports scripts. A good test tool should support the script of test tasks, which can reduce a lot of repetitive work.
3) free open-source, and more authoritative use of free open-source testing tools, because free open-source software often does not have any commercial purposes and can ensure the objective and fair test results.
