Description

We should add a YCSB-like [1] sustained load tester that measures throughput over an extended time period for a fully loaded cluster using Phoenix. Ideally, we'd want to be able to dial up/down the read/write percentages, and control the types of queries being run (scan, aggregate, joins, array usage, etc). Another interesting dimension is simultaneous users and on top of that multi-tenant views.

This would be a big effort, but we can stage it and increase the knobs and dials as we go.
