How to achieve throughput time?

[quentinpopp]

Hi,

is it possible to measure the throughput time of the messages. I wanted to know how long a message takes from publish to consume and visualize it in some stat of the report.

Hi,
I didn't try run a complex benchmark. But a simple one I have done and I got a good throughput.
I can share my experience and you will decide if it meet your expectations.

My test was simple:

• fire a lot of messages (for ex: 100 000) in queue
• after that start a similar integration test used in https://github.com/dieselr/gatling-amqp#run
• count time

In general your results will depend on:

• client/server hardware
• type/version of used broker
• client and server and their configurations
• also is important if you need to have acknowledgement on both side (client and server), acknowledge can slow down up to 20 time your throughput, might be more.

I have got around a max of 12 000 messages in a second as throughput, it was without acknowledge.

Hi,

thanks for your reply. I know how to measure the messages per second.
Our setup is the following:
ProducerSimulation -> Exchange -> Message processing application -> Queue -> ConsumerSimulation
How can i meassure the time a message takes from Producer to Consumer and put the stats to the report? Its the latency of Input -> Output
