Description

Ideally we should be able to trigger a workflow in github that will run the performance tests in https://github.com/ballerina-platform/ballerina-performance and give us an report. For this we will need to do the fallowing,

• [ ] Setup a self hosted runner. These tests will need more that 2 hours to run (and our objective is to run them close to metal as possible) therefore we can't use github actions to run the benchmark

• [ ] Setup a private repository Using a self hosted runner for the public performance tests repository is a security risk since public forks and perform RCE on our VM by opening a pull request. Note that our runner VM will need permission to allocate cloud resources, so this is very dangerous.

  • This private repository could potentially include both ballerina-performce as well as performance-common (along with any patches we need to add to performance common)
