Running Ansible playbooks against many hosts can be painfully slow, especially if they are in a region far away from you. I’m always looking for ways to speed up my playbooks and I’ve been using SSH pipelining in Ansible for quite some time. I feel like pipelining has improved the speed of my playbooks, but I’ve never actually tested it.
Recently a tool called Mitogen crossed my path and it claims to give a 1.25x - 7x speedup in Ansible - a bold claim I was immediately skeptical of. Could Mitogen really give a 7x speed increase, and is it any faster than good ol’ pipelining? This was a perfect opportunity to put Mitogen’s claims to the test and finally see how big an improvement pipelining actually gives.
