Scala rest benchmark

Test setup

Client and server run on two separate machines. Both share the same setup:

  • Intel® Core™ i9-13900K CPU @ 3.0GHz (max 5.8GHz, performance-cores only),
  • RAM 64GB DDR5-4800,
  • 10Gbit network,
  • Ubuntu 23.04 (Linux 6.6),
  • Oracle JDK 21.

Server

Server code resides in the /server module. Server exposes a single GET /ts endpoint, which returns server Epoch clock.

Tested servers:

Client

Client code resides in the /client module. Gatling client ramps up to 500 user connections within 30s, and each user issues a GET /ts request at a rate 1K req/s.
For each response, an absolute difference between the client timestamp and the timestamp received from the server is stored into an HdrHistogram. With clocks synchronized between the client and server, this value corresponds to the latency induced by the server.

Clock synchronization

For precise measurement of latency up to milliseconds need to install, configure, and run chrony service.

The following command could be used for installation on Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get -y install chrony

Here is a list of NTP servers that is used in our /etc/chrony/chrony.conf:

        server time5.facebook.com iburst
       	server tempus1.gum.gov.pl
       	server tempus2.gum.gov.pl
        server ntp1.tp.pl
        server ntp2.tp.pl

For non-Poland regions other servers could be preferred.

Finally, need to restart the service after (re)configuration by:

sudo systemctl restart chrony

Here is a great article about time synchronization in Facebook.

Benchmarks

Benchmark results reside in /results.

How to run benchmarks

Note: you need Java 21.0.1+ to build and run the benchmarks.

  1. Build server binaries via 
    sbt stage
  2. Start the desired server using binaries found in server/target/universal/stage/bin
  3. Start gatling web socket client via 
     sbt client/Gatling/test
