Build
Now we’ll build the above Dockerfile and tag it under sahilsk/mongo_2.4.5.
## CD to 'Dockerfile' directory
$ docker build -t sahilsk/mongo_2.4.5 .
RUN
$ docker run -d sahilsk/mongo_2.4.5
Lets do some benchmarking
We’ll employ mongoperf here.
Mongoperf is a utility for checking disk i/o performance of a server independent of MongoDB. It performs simple timed random disk i/o’s.
