HPA Settler

Pre-performance-testing baseline calculator for resource requests/limits and HPA settings

Performance testing is always recommended before moving any recommendation to production. These numbers are a starting point for testing, not a production-ready setting.

Resource sizing

Current CPU request

Current CPU limit

Current memory request
