Netperf Cluster Reservations
The FreeBSD Netperf Cluster is a test cluster used for a variety of FreeBSD kernel development, much oriented towards performance measurement and enhancement. This page can be used to register use of a machine for testing purposes to help prevent toe-treading. When you're done using a system for a purpose, please do put a note in the past users table so that we can keep track of the sorts of work being done. This information comes in really handy when looking for donations to help pay for new hardware to add to the cluster!
You can visit the NetperfClusterPointers page for more information on using the Netperf cluster, as well as the official Netperf Cluster Web Page on www.FreeBSD.org.
