+puppet-users, puppet-dev to catch the developer-y folks too.

How, if at all, do any of you do capacity planning with Puppet?

I've worked out a snippet of ruby code that will take the cached fact
data from the servers, and use that to issue a bunch of catalog
retrieval requests. I ended up modifying my auth.conf (such an
awesomely flexible setup) to allow a given certificate to request
anyone's catalogs, which made this all a lot easier.

I'm now looking at jmeter to issue the https with client certificate
GET requests, and before I dive too deeply into scripting jmeter, I
thought I'd see what anyone else is doing in this space.

It would be awesome if we could put something into the source
distribution to do this in a standard manner so we can all compare
performance on different platforms and ruby stacks.

This is all a lot easier with the RESTful API than it was with XMLRPC
by the way.

There was the puppet-test script in ext/, but as per
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/3183 it doesn't appear to
have been updated for 0.25.x clients.

Anyone else interested in collaborating on something to provide
uniform server benchmarking with pretty graphs for management?
