how to perform a performance test of mmproxy-rs?

[lootoos]

iperf server install on vds?
iperf client on home pc?
next, run iperf clinet - by specifying the address of the iperf server?
Are there any ways to test TCP mmproxy-rs?
What are the commands for testing TCP mmproxy-rs?

• Start an echo server in the same machine as mmproxy-rs is running and then point mmproxy-rs to it
• Install tcpkali and run the following command on that same machine:

tcpkali -c 50 -T 10s -e1 'PROXY TCP4 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 \{connection.uid} $ECHOSERVERPORT\r\n' -m 'PING\r\n' 127.0.0.1:$MMPROXYPORT

Please note that we have an open issue (#4) that aims to improve the throughput of the TCP proxy by approximately 100%, but I have not yet had the time to fully work on it because of upcoming final exams.

Start the echo server on the same machine running mmproxy-rs - how to start the echo server?

[brkp]

One option for setting up an echo server is to use ncat. To do so, simply enter the command ncat -e /bin/cat -kl 1122 in the terminal. This will start an echo server on port 1122. Another option, which is faster but requires a bit more setup, is bpf-echo. If you want to use this option, you can follow the installation instructions on the GitHub page.

I run "ncat -e /bin/cat -kl 1122" which command should I enter next to check the performance?

I think I will add more detailed benchmarking docs when I have some time

When should I wait ?
