Performance
Benchmark results
This page is to collect a list of benchmark results available and demonstrate not only the words about containers technology being more superior from performance point of view compared to hypervisors but also to provide some data proving that.
| Benchmark | Description |
| Response Time | Microbenchmark demonstrating latency issues of interactive applications in virtualized and loaded systems (netperf RR in various conditions). |
| Network Throughput | 10Gbit simple network throughput comparison using netperf test. |
| LAMP | Linux Apache+MySql+PHP (LAMP) stack benchmark in multiple simultaneously running virtualization instances. |
| vConsolidate-UP | UP configuration of Intel vConsolidate server consolidation benchmark (Java+Apache+MySQL workloads). |
| vConsolidate-SMP | SMP configuration of Intel vConsolidate server consolidation benchmark (Java+Apache+MySQL workloads). |
