The biggest amount of API overhead is the node sanitization process, at least at this point in time. We have streamlined the database interaction to ensure specific field selection lists are as orderly as possible, but the node sanitization code re-executes some methods over and over which do not require variable data from the underlying node. These are blanket settings "is the user allowed to see x, or y". Which means we can call node_sanitize pre-seeding these arguments and execute the calls once, instead of a thousand times to have the same exact result.

Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
