This directory contains a number of tests that illustrate the
performance of TAO and other ORBs. The individual directories contain
READMEs on how to run the following performance tests:

. Cubit

  This directory contains performance tests for TAO that
  measure the latency, jitter, CPU utilization, and
  priority inversion of these ORBs.

. Latency

  A set of performance tests that measure throughput, latency
  and jitter.

. POA

  Various tests of the TAO's POA performance.

. Pluggable

  The tests in this directory time the latency contributed by
  various parts of the ORB, but mostly the emphasis is on the
  contribution due to the pluggable protocols code.

. RTCorba

  Tests for various (TAO-specific) real-time features. Tests
  for RT CORBA spec real-time features can be found in
  $TAO_ROOT/tests/RTCORBA.

. Throughput

  Throughput tests (bytes per second) for TAO.
