WfTune documentation

WfTune benchmarks scientific workflow deployment on Slurm, measuring both workflow completion time and scheduler impact. This wiki covers local analysis, real campaign collection, and the evidence needed to compare treatments.

Additional guides

Before collecting: real campaigns require coordination with the site administrator and root access on the physical Slurm controller. Start with the synthetic quick start to explore the analysis locally.

The repository contains code, configuration templates, and synthetic fixtures. Real campaign data, scientific inputs, workflow outputs, credentials, and site configuration stay outside the source checkout. Synthetic fixtures exercise the software; they are not benchmark results.
