The previous iteration was only timing how long it took to GET some resource providers after we create 1000 of them. It's also useful to know how long it takes to create them. Neither of these timings are robust because we do not have reliable sameness from virtual machine to virtual machine (especially between cloud providers) but they make it possible to become aware of unusual circumstances. To avoid extraneous noise in the placement-perf.txt file, set +x and set -x surrounds the commands that create that output. Change-Id: I4da2703dc4e8b306d004ac092d436d85669caf0f
Warning: This repository is currently in a state of flux as the placement service is extracted from nova. While that is happening this repository is not yet fully working.
If you are viewing this README on GitHub, please be aware that placement development happens on OpenStack git and OpenStack gerrit.
Team and repository tags
OpenStack Placement
OpenStack Placement provides an HTTP service for managing, selecting, and claiming providers of classes of inventory representing available resources in a cloud.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
For the time being bugs in placement should be created in the Nova bug tracker with a tag of ``placement``.
Developers
For information on how to contribute to Placement, please see the contents of CONTRIBUTING.rst.
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all tests.
