Description Todor Minchev 2017-02-10 17:56:41 UTC 
The Phoromatic cache server is very unstable and benchmarks cannot be reliably executed on the target. We need to investigate this instability or look for alternative ways to cache the benchmarks.

This is part of the infrastructure work, may require server hardware, but could be started with a desktop machine
Comment 2 SJ 2017-05-29 23:23:39 UTC 
Tested with desktop machines and it looked stable after 1 time caching test pts/tiobench-1.3.0. When running with tiobench on any other operating system, it will run as "installed" instead of "to install". Will test with a few more images that runs together and see what happens.

Comment 4 SJ 2017-06-01 02:14:41 UTC 
sample run of pts/tiobench which is not cache at first seems to fail to download from the server. After i ran make-download-cache from server and rerun the test on this client, it shows "download from cache" immediately which seems to work fine. Hence I'm setting it to resolve for now as it works for me after tested.
