Description of problem: Several backportable improvements have been made to neutron in the Liberty cycle that remove extra overhead during normal operation. As this is an intrinsic performance issue, it is in a sense 100% reproducible. However, there is no direct mechanism of quantifying the problem without invasive instrumentation of the code. Steps to reproduce might look like: 1. Configure a reasonable yet large number of routers 2. Monitor CPU usage of neutron server and responsiveness of operations The actual results might be that the neutron server spikes to a sustained 100% CPU usage and loses responsiveness, while the expected result is that it fluctuates according to user activity and the agent update cycle.
