Hi - I know we can perform benchmarking of S3 using elbencho. Does VAST have a a one-pager with high-level S3 performance for large objects and small objects: MB/s, Ops/sec, latency (ms)?

Hi @billhill thanks for posting!

We do not have a 1-pager available as this depends on many factors, including client side configuration. Will have someone reach out to you.

In the interim, do checkout the following resources:

- [How To Guide for Benchmarking VAST Data](https://kb.vastdata.com/docs/how-to-guide-for-benchmarking-vast-data)
- [S3 over RDMA: Scaling the KV Cache Data Plane](https://www.vastdata.com/blog/s3-over-rdma-scaling-the-kv-cache-data-plane)
