This repo contains both server and client used in oatpp-websocket-benchmarks. Both server and client are implemented based on oatpp Async API and oatpp-coroutines

Create two n1-highmem-16 (16 vCPUs, 104 GB memory) - Debian GNU/Linux 9 instances in same VPC on Google Cloud.

• Install git

$ sudo su
$ apt-get update
...
$ apt-get install -y git
...

• Clone benchmark-websocket repo and cd to repo folder

$ git clone https://github.com/oatpp/benchmark-websocket
...
$ cd benchmark-websocket

• Install oatpp and oatpp-websocket modules (run ./prepare.sh script).

$ ./prepare.sh

• Configure environment (run ./sock-config-5m.sh script)

$ ./sock-config-5m.sh
$ ulimit -n 6000000

Commands for server instance only:

• Build server

$ cd server/main/build/
$ cmake ..
$ make

• Run server

$ ./my-project-exe --tp 16 --tio 8 --pc 500

where:
--tp - number of data-processing threads.
--tio - number of I/O workers.
--pc - number of ports to listen to.

Commands for client instance only:

• Build client

$ cd client/main/build/
$ cmake ..
$ make

• Run client

$ ./my-project-exe --tp 16 --tio 8 -h <server-private-ip> --socks-max 5000000 --socks-port 10000 --si 1000 --sf 30 --pc 500

where:
--tp - number of data-processing threads.
--tio - number of I/O workers.
-h <server-private-ip> - substitute private-ip of server instance here.
--socks-max - how many client connections to establish.
--socks-port - how many client connections per port.
--si 1000 --sf 30 - control how fast clients will connect to server. Here - each 1000 iterations sleep for 30 milliseconds.
--pc - number of available server ports to connect to.

Note - clients will not start load until all clients are connected.
Note - client app will fail with assertion if any of clients has failed.
