One of the deliverables of the Hyrax Fedora 6 Working Group is to gather performance testing metrics for Sirenia - a Hyrax 5.x application backed by Fedora 6.x using Valkyrie. With a nurax instance now configured and available for testing, we are looking to the community to engage and support in this testing effort.

The results of this testing will inform any future updates or improvements required and to provide baseline expectations on overall performance of the stack.

Participation is open to all users.
