Medium scale simulation

[damip]

Description

In the following cases, the testnet is not flexible enough, the labnet is too small, and the docker simulations are not powerful enough:

• git bisect to find bugs such as https://github.com/massalabs/massa/issues/2810
• realistic CI-based performance evaluation

Requirement

We need a middle ground.

Have 30 servers following the expected node specs, and a script allowing to:

• deploy a network at a given commit on the 30 servers
• run transaction spam
• monitor the nodes and gather performance reports
• present the reports in a way that allows comparing with other runs (eg. to detect changes and regressions, and to make bisects)

[damip]

We might already need this thing to debug https://github.com/massalabs/massa/issues/2810

Closing now that this simulator exist here : https://github.com/massalabs/massa-k8s-simulator . If features on this are needed create an issue on this repository
