Good for measuring performance or benchmarking, especially if all you can get your hands on is print.
pip install graphout
Execute ping 12 times using 6 parallel processes, parse the millisecond latency and make a graph.
graphout -n 12 --proc 6 --out ping_so -p 'latency_ms:time=([0-9]*)ms' --stack --rot-x -- ping www.stackoverflow.com -l [payload_bytes] -- 100 1000 10000 20000
|--------------------------------- options --------------------------------| |------------- command template ------------| |----- values -----|
After running this, three things are going to happen:
- The ping command is going to be run 12 times for each
[100, 1000, 10000, 20000]value placed at[payload_bytes]in the command template. - The output is going to be parsed line-by-line and a
time=([0-9]*)msregex applied to extract the latency. - The numeric results and some charts are going to be put into a folder named
ping_so.
Each command configuration is going to contain up to 48 datapoints since each ping produces 4 measures, so 4 * 12 = 48.
However, ping can sometimes time out so less than 48 datapoints is also possible.
Separate per-parameter-value KDEs and histograms are also generated.
