Description

Naive throughput measurements for Python web apps and servers

This tries to measure a throughput for various Python web apps and servers

Benchmark report sample: https://idlesign.github.io/narrow/

Stands:

• nginx_ssl_static: Nginx static response using SSL

• nginx_ssl_tcp_uwsgi: Nginx -> UWSGI -> TCP socket -> uwsgi -> app response. Using SSL

• nginx_ssl_unix_uwsgi: Nginx -> UWSGI -> Unix socket -> uwsgi -> app response. Using SSL

• nginx_static: Nginx static response

• nginx_tcp_uwsgi: Nginx -> UWSGI -> TCP socket -> uwsgi -> app response

• nginx_unix_uwsgi: Nginx -> UWSGI -> Unix socket -> uwsgi -> app response

• uwsgi: uwsgi HTTP router -> app response

• uwsgi_ssl: uwsgi HTTP router -> app response. Using SSL

Apps/frameworks:

• bottle: Bottle framework application

• cherrypy: CherryPy framework application

• django: Django framework application

• flask: Flask framework application

• py: Pure wsgi application – default

Benchers:

• h2load: h2load from nghttp2

• weighttp: weighttp (no SSL support)

Requirements

Basics:

• Python 3.4+

• nginx

• uwsgi

Benchmarking tools (any):

• h2load

• weighttp
