If yes, why not make it available? If you don't have = he resources, I offer my help to make it available somewhere. Yes, that's me. I'm mostly out of time right now, but I'd like to offer = help if someone wants to pick up the project. For those who haven't heard about it, it's a system designed = specifically to track performance of FreeBSD over time by comparing = revisions of FreeBSD, everything else being equal. It consists of a = tinderbox-like build script for a build server, a script to install = FreeBSD and run benchmarks on at least one slave, and a database-backed = website to aggregate and visualize results. The framework does work as-is, but it really needs to be updated: = convert the scripts to use the SVN repo instead of CVS, improve = visualization and search on the web fronted, and improve the = benchmarking script so it's easier to extend. I don't have hardware = available to run the benchmarks, but I think there's hardware available = in the FreeBSD cluster. Here's a link to the source code: http://dev.affect-it.dk/tracker.tgz And to my thesis describing how it works: = http://dev.affect-it.dk/tracker.pdf Just send me a mail if you're interested.
