Our current throughput tests open a connection, open a stream,
up- or download 100MB and close the connection. 100 MB is not enough on the
given path (60ms, ~5gbit/s) to exit congestion controller's slow-start. See
https://github.com/libp2p/test-plans/issues/261 for details.
Instead of downloading 100MB multiple times, each on a new connection, establish
a single connection and continuously measure the throughput for a fixed
duration (20s).
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
