What does it do?
Removes
perf-test
'ssys-info
feature.The goal of this feature when it was originally written was to collect system info to help put the test results in perspective.
However, this ballooned into a lot of different 3rd party dependencies, none of which seemed very mature or resilient. In addition, it has produced lots of crashes and compile errors on unusual environments.
If we want to replace this feature, I think the first thing I would do is look for a bash script or similar that can collect this info rather than bake it into our binary.
