- Click on the
Startbutton
ipfs-perfs leverages the Javascript IPFS client (js-ipfs) to test the performances of I/O operations over the IPFS network.
Starting the app (see Installation) spawns two concurrent IPFS local daemons (nodes) on your machine.
Starting a test through the UI (see Usage) will run the following synchronous sequence (it will iterate over it infinitely):
- Generate a unique Buffer of the requested size
- Make the first IPFS node add the Buffer to the network
- Make the second IPFS node get the Buffer from the network
- Capture execution times of both operations and plot them
