# ForgeOps benchmarks

The benchmarking instructions in this part of the documentation give you a method to validate performance of your ForgeOps deployment.

The benchmarking techniques we present are a lightweight example, and are not a substitute for load testing a production deployment. Use our benchmarking techniques to help you get started with the task of constructing your own load tests.

When you[create a project plan](../../start/start-here.html#planning), you'll need to think about how you'll put together production-quality load tests that accurately measure your own deployment's performance.
