ServiceLab is a pre-production A/B performance platform that replays sampled RPCs across on-demand heterogeneous machines to catch tiny regressions before rollouts, detecting regressions as small as 0.01% and reporting a 0.14% median regression on a serverless front-end running on >500k machines. A study of 21M hardware benchmarks finds five factors account for 87% variance (server type, CPU, kernel, turbo, datacenter), Trials multiply parallel replicas for tighter CIs, and static analysis selects 23% of commits to test, with 3% signaled.
