Simple mORMot server for REST benchmark

Socket based server

ab -n 10000 -c 1000 http://localhost:8888/root/abc

Keep alive

By default mROMot HTTP server runs in KeepAlive mode.

To disable KeepAlive run RESTBenchmark with secont parameter false

 ./RESTBenchmark 8888 false

Disabling KeepAlive make sence in case mORMotserver is behind the reverse proxy. In this case reverse proxy cares about KeepAlive connection pool and mormot can operate with fixed thread pool size.

Unix Domain Socket (Linux)

When to use

In case mORMot is behind a local reverse proxy on the environment with a huge number of incoming connection it's make sence to use a UDS to minimize unnecessary TCP handshakes between mORMot and reverse proxy.

To emulate such environment on the syntetic test we can disable keep alive in RESTBEnchmark by passing false to then second parameter

./RESTBenchmark unix false
./RESTBenchmark 8888 false

How to run

  • compile program and run with unix parameter
./RESTBenchmark unix

Benchmark will listen on Unix Domain Socket /tmp/rest-bench.socket

  • test it with curl
curl --unix-socket /tmp/rest-bench.socket http://localhost/root/abc
  • setup nginx as a reverse proxy
sudo ln -s "$(pwd)/mormot-rest-nginx.conf" /etc/nginx/sites-available
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/mormot-rest-nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
sudo nginx -s reload
  • test it using ab (or better - wrk)
wrk http://localhost:8888/root/abc
