[Cosmo-dev] Cosmo performance

[Mikeal Rogers]

We're going to be moving this work into a contrib project in the  
windmill repository.

The new project will be responsible for a little more than just these  
graphs.

The project will;

1. Check tinderbox for the newest continuous build
2. Setup the new build with mysql
3. Run the performance test suite based on the use cases Priscilla  
has given to adam (we'll probably run them several times like the way  
the Chandler performance tests are run )
4. Store the results
5. Make pretty graphs and highlight changes (we'll probably make it  
look somewhat like the graphs we're currently using for Chandler )

This is all very rough, but I'm hoping to get something functional by  
the end of next week unless other work trumps this work. Once it's  
working we can talk about what box we're going to put this on and  
keep it running.
