      Summary
      New variant to do stress testing on WiredTiger using ARM 64 platform.

      Motivation
      We have not been stress testing on the ARM platform. ARM offers some different platform characteristics that could help exercise different code paths in WiredTiger.

      • Is this issue urgent?
        Yes, it could help find some corruption bug(s).

      Acceptance Criteria (Definition of Done)
      When we have a new builder on ARM platform, with some stress tests running on it.

      [Optional] Suggested Solution
      A starting point is to use the Ubuntu x86_64 stress test variant and copy it to run on ARM. Then fix any issues, and remove any tests not needed.
