Skynet 1M concurrency microbenchmark

Creates an actor (goroutine, whatever), which spawns 10 new actors, each of them spawns 10 more actors, etc. until one million actors are created on the final level. Then, each of them returns back its ordinal number (from 0 to 999999), which are summed on the previous level and sent back upstream, until reaching the root actor. (The answer should be 499999500000).

Results (on my shitty Macbook 12" '2015, Core M, OS X):

  • Scala/Akka: ? ms (somebody run this)
  • Haskell (GHC 7.10.3): 6181 ms.
  • Erlang (non-HIPE): 4414 ms.
  • Erlang (HIPE): 3999 ms.
  • Go: 979 ms.
  • .NET Core: Async (8 threads) 650 ms / Sync (1 thread) 232 ms

Results (i7-4770, Win8.1):

  • Scala/Akka: 4419 ms
  • Haskell (GHC 7.10.3): 2820 ms.
  • Erlang (non-HIPE): 1700 ms.
  • Go: 629 ms.
  • .NET Core: Async (8 threads) 290 ms / Sync (1 thread) 49 ms.
  • Node-bluebird (Promise) 285ms / 195ms (after warmup)
  • F# MailboxProcessor: 756ms (should be faster?..)
  • .NET Full (TPL): 118 ms

How to run

Scala/Akka

Install latest Scala and SBT.

Go to scala/, then run sbt, then compile, then run.

Go

Install latest Go compiler/runtime.

In go/, run go run skynet.go.

Erlang

Install latest Erlang runtime.

In erlang, run erl +P 2000000 (to raise process limit), then compile:

  • For non-HIPE: c(skynet).
  • For HIPE (if supported on your system): hipe:c(skynet).

Then, run:

skynet:skynet(1000000,10).

.NET Core:

Install latest version of .NET Core

Go to dnx/
dotnet restore (first time)
dotnet run

Haskell

Install the GHC compiler

In haskell/, run ghc -O2 -o skynet Skynet.hs then ./skynet

Node (bluebird)

Install node.js

in node-bluebird/ run npm install then node skynet

CoffeeScript (CSP)

Install node.js in coffee/ run npm install then npm run bench

FSharp

Install FSharp Interactive

Run fsi skynet.fsx, or run fsi and paste the code in (runs faster this way)

Crystal:

Install latest version of Crystal.

Go to crystal/ crystal build skynet.cr --release ./skynet

.NET/TPL

Build the solution with VS2015. Windows only :(
