Requirements

• Linux
• Docker
• perf: The Linux performance testing utility

The server and client components are run in a container for a consistent and stable environment regarding system libraries and compiler versions.

Usage

Generate binary test data

Run:

cd data
./gen.sh

This will generate 1MiB files for the binary binary entries for each line in the data.csv.

Build the Docker images

Run ./build.sh, this will create the Docker images the tests are run in.

Configuration

The ./test.sh has a few variables to tune how the tests are performed:

• REPEATS: how many times is a single test repeated
• SERVER: the IP address of the machine the server will be listening on
• START: the index of the first record to process
• END: the index of the last record to process

Running the tests

Run ./test.sh.

This will prompt before each server change to start the corresponding server by running ./run.sh <rpc type> <language> server on the machine designated as the server.

The results of the tests will be output to the current directory in separate log files.
