Hi Marc,
We will have something soon, but since it does focus on the kind of
extensive validation that you're looking for, it's taking time to make sure
it is written in a comprehensive but concise way. Feel free to contact me
off the list if you have more detailed questions about specific performance
tests or other aspects that you want to discuss.
