DJANGO BENCHMARK SUITE EXPANDS TO UBUNTU LATEST

By RepoJournal · Filed 06:00 UTC on May 31, 2026 · About Django

Django's performance tracking infrastructure now covers the latest Ubuntu LTS, giving you clearer signals on how your code runs on current production environments.

The django-asv performance benchmarking suite added results for ubuntu-latest [1], expanding the matrix of environments where Django's performance gets tracked and reported. This fills a gap in visibility: you now have baseline measurements on the OS version that most teams deploy to in 2024 and beyond. The data is live and tagged [skip ci], meaning it runs on schedule without blocking CI pipelines. If you've been wondering whether a recent commit tanked performance on modern Ubuntu, you'll now see it in the benchmark dashboard alongside the historical timeline.
