discussion about the importance of stress testing over System Tests and unit tests, Coordinated Omission Problem in load generators where they don't accurately measure server performance during slowdowns, introduction to HyperFoil as a high-performance load generator capable of generating millions of requests per second with just two cores, explanation of how HyperFoil avoids GC overhead by pre-allocating resources, the architecture of HyperFoil using Netty event loops and a graph-based execution model, comparison with other load testing tools like JMeter, K6, Apache Benchmark and Vegeta, introduction to QDUP as a shell automation tool for distributed testing, overview of Horreum for performance test results storage and analysis, explanation of how these tools work together in Red Hat's performance testing pipeline, discussion of JCTools and its importance for GC-free concurrent data structures, the Universal Scalability Law and its application to load balancing algorithms, the pick-two-random algorithm for efficient resource allocation, the benefits of using JBang for easy one-line execution of HyperFoil, potential drawbacks of HyperFoil including ergonomics and JIT compilation warm-up issues, the possibility of using GraalVM native image to avoid JIT compilation delays
