vmbench is a program for conducting benchmarks on virtual machines by recording results from runs under different Linux kernel parameters using cr8's run_crate and run_spec. Feedback on adjustments of parameters, results formatting and aggregations on report outcomes is very welcome.

# TODO: Make version and heap size configurable.

@WalBeh told me that assigning 14G of heap space would be too much. While they used to assign 50% of system memory to CrateDB's heap, they are only assigning 20% these days. That would be 3.2G for a machine with 16G of system memory, so assigning CRATE_HEAP_SIZE=4G might be just right?

What would be your advice here, @mfussenegger?

Also output the daytime the program was started. Example:

# variability,runtime,daytime
