# libp2p performance benchmarking
|
||
|
|
||
|
This project includes the following components:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `terraform/`: a Terraform scripts to provision infrastructure
|
||
|
- `impl/`: implementations of the [libp2p perf protocol](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/perf/perf.md) running on top of e.g. go-libp2p, rust-libp2p or Go's std-library https stack
|
||
|
- `runner/`: a set of scripts building and running the above implementations on the above infrastructure, reporting the results in `benchmark-results.json`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Benchmark results can be visualized with https://observablehq.com/@mxinden-workspace/libp2p-performance-dashboard.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Provision infrastructure
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Bootstrap
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Save your public SSH key as the file `./terraform/modules/short_lived/files/perf.pub`; or generate a new key pair with `make ssh-keygen` and add it to your SSH agent with `make ssh-add`.
|
||
|
2. `cd terraform/configs/local`
|
||
|
3. `terraform init`
|
||
|
4. `terraform apply`
|
||
|
5. `CLIENT_IP=$(terraform output -raw client_ip)`
|
||
|
6. `SERVER_IP=$(terraform output -raw server_ip)`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Build and run implementations
|
||
|
|
||
|
_WARNING_: Running the perf tests might take a while.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. `cd runner`
|
||
|
2. `npm ci`
|
||
|
3. `npm run start -- --client-public-ip $CLIENT_IP --server-public-ip $SERVER_IP`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Deprovision infrastructure
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. `cd terraform/configs/local`
|
||
|
2. `terraform destroy`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Adding a new implementation
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Add implementation to `impl/`.
|
||
|
- Create a folder `impl/<your-implementation-name>/<your-implementation-version>`.
|
||
|
- In that folder include a `Makefile` that builds an executable and stores it next to the `Makefile` under the name `perf`.
|
||
|
- Requirements for the executable:
|
||
|
- Running as a libp2p-perf server
|
||
|
- Command line flags
|
||
|
- `--run-server`
|
||
|
- Running as a libp2p-perf client
|
||
|
- Input via command line
|
||
|
- `--server-ip-address`
|
||
|
- `--transport` (see `runner/versions.ts` for possible variants)
|
||
|
- `--upload-bytes` number of bytes to upload per stream.
|
||
|
- `--download-bytes` number of bytes to download per stream.
|
||
|
- Output
|
||
|
- Logging MUST go to stderr.
|
||
|
- Measurement output is printed to stdout as JSON in the form of:
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
{"connectionEstablishedSeconds":0.246442851,"uploadSeconds":0.000002077,"downloadSeconds":0.060712241}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
2. In `impl/Makefile` include your implementation in the `all` target.
|
||
|
3. Reference implementation in `runner/src/versions.ts`.
