Covers installing the Hyperfoil operator, creating benchmark configuration files with Hot Rod protocol scenarios (ramp-up and constant-rate phases for GET/PUT operations), interpreting throughput and latency statistics, and common troubleshooting tips like encryption timeouts and CPU saturation. Also explains garbage collection trade-offs between G1 GC, ZGC, and Shenandoah for heap vs. off-heap cache configurations, and notes that scaling from one to two Data Grid nodes can initially decrease write performance before improving at larger cluster sizes. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
