Description
-----------
-Dashboard tables list a summary of latest per test-case VPP Maximum
-Receive Rate (MRR) performance trend, trend compliance metrics and
-detected number of anomalies. Data samples come from the CSIT VPP
-performance trending jobs executed twice a day, every 12 hrs (02:00,
-14:00 UTC). All trend and anomaly evaluation is based on a rolling
-window of <N=14> data samples, covering last 7 days.
+Performance dashboard tables provide the latest VPP throughput trend,
+trend compliance and detected anomalies, all on a per VPP test case
+basis. Linked trendline graphs enable further drill-down into the
+trendline compliance, sequence and nature of anomalies, as well as
+pointers to performance test builds/logs and VPP builds. Performance
+trending is currently based on the Maximum Receive Rate (MRR) tests. MRR
+tests measure the packet forwarding rate under the maximum load offered
+by traffic generator over a set trial duration, regardless of packet
+loss. See :ref:`trending_methodology` section for more detail including
+trend and anomaly calculations.

Tested VPP worker-thread-core combinations (1t1c, 2t2c, 4t4c) are listed
in separate tables in section 1.x. Followed by trending methodology in
-section 2. and daily trending graphs in sections 3.x. Daily trending
-data used is provided in sections 4.x.
+section 2. and trendline graphs in sections 3.x. Performance test data
+used for trendline graphs is provided in sections 4.x.
