## Problem see https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8070 ## Summary of changes the neon_local subcommands to - start neon - start pageserver - start safekeeper - start storage controller get a new option -t=xx or --start-timeout=xx which allows to specify a longer timeout in seconds we wait for the process start. This is useful in test cases where the pageserver has to read a lot of layer data, like in pagebench test cases. In addition we exploit the new timeout option in the python test infrastructure (python fixtures) and modify the flaky testcase to increase the timeout from 10 seconds to 1 minute. Example from the test execution ```bash RUST_BACKTRACE=1 NEON_ENV_BUILDER_USE_OVERLAYFS_FOR_SNAPSHOTS=1 DEFAULT_PG_VERSION=15 BUILD_TYPE=release ./scripts/pytest test_runner/performance/pageserver/pagebench/test_pageserver_max_throughput_getpage_at_latest_lsn.py ... 2024-06-19 09:29:34.590 INFO [neon_fixtures.py:1513] Running command "/instance_store/neon/target/release/neon_local storage_controller start --start-timeout=60s" 2024-06-19 09:29:36.365 INFO [broker.py:34] starting storage_broker to listen incoming connections at "127.0.0.1:15001" 2024-06-19 09:29:36.365 INFO [neon_fixtures.py:1513] Running command "/instance_store/neon/target/release/neon_local pageserver start --id=1 --start-timeout=60s" 2024-06-19 09:29:36.366 INFO [neon_fixtures.py:1513] Running command "/instance_store/neon/target/release/neon_local safekeeper start 1 --start-timeout=60s" ```
How to reproduce benchmark results / run these benchmarks interactively.
- Get an EC2 instance with Instance Store. Use the same instance type as used for the benchmark run.
- Mount the Instance Store =>
neon.git/scripts/ps_ec2_setup_instance_store - Use a pytest command line (see other READMEs further up in the pytest hierarchy).
For tests that take a long time to set up / consume a lot of storage space,
we use the test suite's repo_dir snapshotting functionality (from_repo_dir).
It supports mounting snapshots using overlayfs, which improves iteration time.
Here's a full command line.
