[ovirt-devel] Doctor Rest PostgreSQL report

Martin,

Looking at the stats you generated I can see that there is almost no
difference for cpu and memory. Load seems to be at the same level for both.
I tried to understand the differences by looking and # of calls and total
time (top 10) but there was almost no difference. The only slight difference
I can see is in avg time. It seems that we haven't generate enough load to
see significant improvement. How many client have you used during testing?

I am not sure how much it would take but what do you think about using
doctor as caching service for the engine and run few tests.
I wonder what would be the result of such PoC.

Thanks,
Piotr
