Spawn clients and servers to load test Telepathy
Each client sends 100 bytes 14 per second and the server echoes back the same message.
for 1000 clients we have:
Test Computer: 2015 Macbook Pro with a 2,2 GHz Intel Core i7 processor.
Test Results:
| Clients | CPU Usage | Ram Usage | Bandwidth Client+Server | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 128 | 7% | 26 MB | 1-2 MB/s | Passed |
| 500 | 28% | 51 MB | 3-4 MB/s | Passed |
| 1000 | 42% | 75 MB | 3-5 MB/s | Passed |
_Note: results will be significantly better on a really powerful server.
To run a server, do:
cd bin/Debug
mono LoadTest.exe server 1337
To run 1000 clients connected to localhost run:
cd bin/Debug
mono LoadTest.exe client 127.0.0.1 1337 1000
If you want to run both the server and clients
cd bin/Debug
mono LoadTest.exe
If you run this on a mac and you get the following error:
Unhandled Exception:
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): Too many open files
You will need to raise the open file limit. Issue the following command:
ulimit -n 2048
