Benchmark iterations

In the previous section, we prepared all we needed to start a benchmark in an efficient way. Now we need to see how we will work during the benchmark.

The first important thing is to establish that we only deal with optimization iterations here and not evaluation ones, which are straightforward—you run the scenarios and gather the reports.

Iterating

It is probably natural, but you will iterate with your optimizations. This means that you will run the same test again and again to measure the result of a change—for instance, increasing the pool size.

The direct implication of such a work structure is that you need to prepare yourself to store lots of reports in an organized way. There are many...
