For provisioning I have a beaker plugin, = other plugins can be added if needed. Even without beaker one can also prov= ide an installed machine and skip the provisioning step. Runperf would then= only apply the profiles (including fetching the VM images from public sour= ces) and run the tests on them.

It's dirty but very fast for the first-level check. I was thinking about reprovisioning the machine to ensure each run starts from the same clean state. This requires reprovisioning.
