WebSocket Benchmark

This is a benchmark to test the performance of WebSocket libraries.

Build

First clone this repo.

cd ws-benchmark

Pull all the submodules.

git submodule update --init --recursive

Then you can build the repo. There a few cmake options. Regards flashws, if you want to build it without the f-stack and use the system tcp stack instead, add -DFWS_ENABLE_FSTACK=OFF in cmake commands. If you want to use f-stack and DPDK, please compile and install f-stack first.

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. (options e.g. -DFWS_ENABLE_FSTACK=OFF)
make -j6

You should be able to compile it if no more problems happen.

Usage

You can choose which server and which client to use. And we provide a python script for you to test it.

Usage:\npython3 tools/bench_ws.py c|s (client or server) lib_name host_ip host_port \
              process_cnt client_cnt_per_proc client_restart_cnt \ 
              output_data_file [other arguments for dpdk]

The data will be exported as a csv file.
