# here's a quick recipe to run a performance test
# with this method, you can:
 #-> easily choose the examples you want included from your existing specs
 #-> define the target number of total iterations you'd like, no limit
 #-> tune the transaction mix by specifying frequency metadata for each example
 #-> be happy that the transaction mix is fairly homogeneous over the test interval

# (ideally you'd run this with acceptance (webrat/capybara) specs, but you
# could employ this technique for any rspec test)
