The objective of the performance test is to find out an inflection point when the storage starts dropping data.

Requirements:

• monitor system resources: CPU, memory usage
• run for any duration
• monitor dropped spans
• validate spans were stored
• emitted spans should have a similar structure to data emitted by envoy instrumentation
• emitted data should not be static - e.g. values of tags should have high cardinality

There are already these two performance test frameworks:

• https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-performance
• https://github.com/pavolloffay/jaeger-perf-tests

If these cannot be used then we should create something lightweight in go.
