WebSockets erlang vs ... (again)

Another competition erlang vs...

In this case with websockets


https://github.com/ericmoritz/wsdemo/blob/results-v1/results.md



C10K Websocket Test

Methodology

This benchmark starts a new client every 1ms, each client sends a timestamp message to the server every second and the server echos that message back to the client.
I started two m1.medium AWS instances. On one instance I started one of the servers and the other instance I ran the ./runtestcommand as:
sudo bash
ulimit -n 999999
./runtest 300 $SERVER_HOSTNAME 8000 10000
The clients communicated to the server via the server's public IP.
After 5 minutes of running, the statistics are dumped to a log file in results/.
Both EC2 instances are configured with the following etc/sysctl.conf file:
# General gigabit tuning:
net.core.rmem_max = 16777216
net.core.wmem_max = 16777216
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 16777216
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 16777216
net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1
# this gives the kernel more memory for tcp
# which you need with many (100k+) open socket connections
net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 50576   64768   98152
net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 2500

stat definitions

connection_time

Elapsed time between the opening of the client TCP socket and the websocket handshake is finished.

latency

Elapsed time for a message sent from the client to echo back to the client by the server.

connections

Number of connections

disconnections

Number of server disconnects

messages

Total number of messages received by the clients

connection_timeouts

Total number of connection timeouts. The timeout is currently hard coded as 2 seconds. This means that any TCP connection that takes longer than 2 seconds to be accepted, this number will be incremented and the client crashes

crashes

Number of crashed clients from a reason other than timeout

Python (ws4py)1561ms34889ms105299647925208
Both the Python gevent/ws4py implementation and the Node.js websocket implementation failed hard with around half of the connections hitting the 2 second TCP connection timeout.
I expected Go to kick Erlang's ass in the performance department but the message latency was much higher than Erlang's latency and we had 225 unhappy customers. Go only reached C9.775k; close but no cigar.
I did not know what to expect with the Java Webbit implementation. I expected it to perform somewhere close to the Go implementation. The Webbit implementation did do much better than the Go implementation but it still had 157 connection timeouts which is unacceptable.
I was very surprised that node.js fell down after 5001 connections and that gevent fell down at 4792 connections. Both platforms were specifically built to for the C10k problem and both platforms could barely handle C5k.
