Is performance better than Ansible? I have used Ansible extensively and find it excruciatingly slow.




Hi @Fizzadar and congrats on making this and getting it out the door; kudos!

As you craft your "Why this and not Ansible" content, you might actually state clearly what you already noted on the Performance page, namely: "One of the reasons pyinfra was started was performance of agent-less tools at the time." If I read that, it'd instantly make me want to stick around and read some more, play with pyinfra, etc. BTW, i will be playing with it anyway, but just wanted to point out that you likely won;t need to start from scratch for copy (on a comparison or answering "Why this and not Ansible" content). Cheers!


Excruciatingly slow is an understatement :)


Why being slow is a bad thing? Ansible gives me a legitimate excuse to have proper lunch. ;-)


You're supposed to be writing compilers during that time
