Perfomatic:Rearchitecture

Backend

• New DB schema
  • InnoDB
• Add triggers to recalculate averages - bug 456530
• Add stored procedure to remove old data - bug 456532
• Add memcached or sqlite for frequently accessed data
  • Depends on how slow the new db is
• Send less data for continuous graphs - bug 456534

Frontend

• Add more search criteria - bug 456536
• Show machine info per test
• Don't show tests for discrete data
• Don't iterate over datasets
• Don't parse test info for test information

Random Ideas

• bulk and collect.cgi are the same except bulk can handle multiple data points. They should be combined. - bug 456529
• Need to connect data points on continuous graph to discrete - bug 438745
• Need overlay of points on continuous graph that shows buildid and changeset id - bug 431372
• Too much data to query averages and look for regression
• Don't want developers to know machine names
• Dashboard that shows 3 os's and color for status - bug 456567
• Need a way to show/test health of build and health of tests
• Need to test for machine agreement (3 machines run same test, if 1 is way off, that machine is mostly likely broken). - bug 457780
• Need to remove tests for unmonitored branches/builds. - bug 457782
• Waterfall doesn't show test results, just that tests ran, which is not a good indicator of build health.
• Need to stop using machine names for test/build/os
• Win & linux throttled, mac not. This makes comparing Win & Linux to Mac useless.
• Need to figure out what tests we really need
• Terminology is confusing
• Date and time have differences depending on type of graph
• Running Talos on a dev machine, you can't graph anything or get useable numbers
