soledad performance tests
-------------------------
-some minimalistic benchmarks
+some minimalistic benchmarks.
+small prototypes to compare async behavior under load.
+
+intended to evolve to small prototypes that:
+
+ - run soledad
+ - try different things for the decryption pool
+ - serve also a simple server to test how reactor is able to respond under cpu
+ load.
+
+
+You can use the makefile to launch different servers and compare their
+performance::
+ make inline-server # executes cpu load inline
+ make thread-server # cpu load in a twisted threadpool
+ make ampoule-server # cpu load in an ampoule process pool
+ make perf # runs httperf against the server
+
