Local environment to take performance measurements of validators

Requirements

  • The host system has to match the one from the Dockerfile. In this example, it is Ubuntu 22.04.
  • The host system has to have perf installed.
  • docker and docker-compose have to be installed.

HowTo

We start a local docker compose environment with 4 validators and 1 spammer. The arguments of the spammer can be adjusted in the compose file spammer.yml.

  • git clone [email protected]:topos-protocol/perf-environment.git
  • cd perf-environment
  • ./start.sh

Behind the scenes

The start.sh is starting docker compose up, which in turn builds the Dockerfile, which downloads either the latest main or a PR from the topos repository, and builds it via debugging RUSTFLAGS. After building the container, it starts 4 topos nodes, and one spammer. The topos nodes are being started via the entrypoint.sh script, which starts the perf command for topos-node-1. After 3 minutes, we create a Profiler Report out of the recorded data, and save it to the local perf-outputs folder. This data.perf can be viewed via Firefox Profiler.
