To run the benchmarks, compile & run the runner
make bins
./benchmarks/runner/runner
This will run the benchmark runner..
Next you can use wrk to generate load,
There are multiple lua scripts in ./benchmarks/*.lua
each with their own instructions.
For example:
wrk -t12 -c400 -d30s -s ./benchmarks/contacts_1KB.lua http://localhost:8093/contacts/foo/contacts
This will generate load against the gateway.
To generate a flame graph for profiling, install go-torch
go get github.com/uber/go-torch
In one tab run a loadtest
./benchmarks/runner/runner -loadtest
while it is running, run go-torch
go-torch -u http://localhost:8093/ -t5
