This section documents how every number in the preceding pages was measured: the definition of a
capacity ceiling, the per-test procedures, the distress signals that stop a run, and the cluster
tuning the numbers depend on.
- Ceiling methodology: the definition of a capacity
ceiling, the measurement loop, functional verification, and the distress probes that stop a run.
- Degradation methodology: why tenant bundles are used,
the canary topology, the measurement statistics, and the stop thresholds.
- Per-test method cards: for each capability, what the test
creates, what “programmed” means, the parameters used, the stop trigger, and the result.
- Cluster tuning and limits: the tuning baseline the numbers
depend on, the first binding factor per capability, and the interpretation caveats.
- Glossary: the network control-plane terms used throughout.
