Benchmark improvements (#960) 
* Get a fresh instance of executor for each benchmark invocation

And don't pre-initialize all of the executors at once, as this
might reach the maximum number of VMs limit in case we want to
test multiple Tart executors.

* Run benchmarks on Tart with different --root-disk-opts options

* Fix TestTart

* benchmark fio: introduce --prepare command-line argument

To be able to specify --prepare='sudo purge && sync', similarly to
Hyperfine[1].

* Benchmark Tart with --root-disk-opts=caching=cached separately too

* Add Ars Technica recommended benchmarks

* Tart executor: log SSH session standard output and standard error

* Reduce file I/O size from 16 to 10 GB to avoid "No space left on device"

* Remove random writing tests to make space for more read/read-write tests

* Add some "randrw"-style fio benchmarks

* Show latency in benchmark results

* Add sync benchmark and show read/write/sync latency

* README.md: add new benchmark results

README.md

Tart is a virtualization toolset to build, run and manage macOS and Linux virtual machines (VMs) on Apple Silicon. Built by CI engineers for your automation needs. Here are some highlights of Tart:

  • Tart uses Apple's own Virtualization.Framework for near-native performance.
  • Push/Pull virtual machines from any OCI-compatible container registry.
  • Use Tart Packer Plugin to automate VM creation.
  • Easily integrates with any CI system.

Tart powers Cirrus Runners service — a drop-in replacement for the standard GitHub-hosted runners, offering 2-3 times better performance for a fraction of the price.

Many companies are using Tart in their internal setups. Here are just a few of them:

Note: If your company or project is using Tart please consider sharing with the community.

Usage

Try running a Tart VM on your Apple Silicon device running macOS 13.0 (Ventura) or later (will download a 25 GB image):

brew install cirruslabs/cli/tart
tart clone ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-sonoma-base:latest sonoma-base
tart run sonoma-base
