• Running a Billion Workflows a month with Netflix Conductor

  We used wrk2, a fantastic tool to generate stable load on the server. Wrk2 improves on wrk and adds the ability to generate sustained load at a specific rate (-R parameter). - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

• So how does WSGI concurrency work?

  I am using a tool called wrk to make a bunch of requests to my website, and changing the concurrency of the requests drastically changes the result, with concurrency set to 1, I get 894 requests made in 10 seconds, and when I set concurrency to 10, I get 8549 requests. This linear scaling stops when increasing the concurrency more drastically (18805 requests for 100 and 19814 for 500 concurrency). Source: 12 months ago

• TcpSocket read error (with wrk)

  Im creating multithreaded async http server for learning purposes and I'm facing problem when benchmarking with wrk. I get socket read errors on every connection:. Source: 12 months ago

• Grasshopper – An Open Source Python Library for Load Testing

  We use locust at work but I HIGHLY recommend wrk for a very robust yet simple load testing tool. https://github.com/wg/wrk. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• What tools you use for http load testing?

  Good morning What tool do you use to test your infra in terms of http load ? A tool that works, I tested : - https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta but it returns 0 errors or a http_net error from Golang - LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Canon) https://github.com/NewEraCracker/LOIC but the requests do not appear in my nginx logs and I feel no slowdown - Apache Jmeter https://jmeter.apache.org/ but I can't drop my infra and I have...

• My Rust server on a $20 VPS handles 10k requests per second with no caching. Is it just me or is that crazy ?

  You could try to just blast it with wrk or bombardier. Can easily get around 50k requests on consumer machine. Source: about 1 year ago

• [2023] Nginx proxy_pass to apache mod_php VS nginx proxy_pass to apache php-fpm vs nginx php-fpm

  Sure, first I did the load testing on the same machine. The same machine ran web servers, php-fpm and ab / wrk programs. Source: over 1 year ago

• Six Charged in Mass Takedown of DDoS-for-Hire Sites

  There are http benchmarking tools like wrk [0]. You don't need a ddos service for that. [0] https://github.com/wg/wrk. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• a tool for quickly creating web and microservice code

  Using the wrk tool to pressure test the api. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Caching heavy SQL query output as JSON - FILE vs MYSQL MEMORY

  How did you test if the queries are expensive? Do you have a route exposes to perform a stress-test using a tool like ab or wrk? Source: over 1 year ago

• Denial of Wallet Attacks: The new (D)DoS in a Serverless world

  Here is what it takes to inflict $$$ damages to a service using "serverless functions" under the hood, with wrk:. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Node.js Cluster vs Axum, a.k.a. yet another benchmark :)

  The benchmark is a simple "hello world" server that returns a JSON response. Server frameworks are correspondingly Fastify for Node and Axum for Rust. Both were running on my laptop (specs should not matter, IMHO, as this is not about absolute numbers). Test load was provided by wrk that was running on the same machine. Source: over 1 year ago

• Protocol Buffer x JSON para serialização de dados

  Testes usando a ferramenta WRK para fazer requests simultâneos nas rotas e comparar quantos requests por segundo a API suporta. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Benchmark of most widely used rust web frameworks

  The benchmarks have been performed using wrk, locally. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Tech people love side projects, I'd love to hear about yours

  I haven't used one in awhile but this one looks decent: https://github.com/wg/wrk. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What's the simplest way to run load tests?

  I have a backend API and some test data representing real clients. I can write a wrk script that loops through the test data and sends requests to the backend. However, my development machine is network/connection limited so I'd like to run this on some cloud provisioned platform. What's the simplest tool or PaaS that would meet these needs? It doesn't have to be the most cost effective, I simply need the ability... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Any tool that compares which of 2 docker containers is the best performing?

  If you're looking for something a bit DIY/YOLO (i.e. Quick and cheap), then I would combine a simple CLI load testing tool like Wrk https://github.com/wg/wrk with a basic container observability tool like ctop https://github.com/bcicen/ctop. Source: about 2 years ago

• Google Cloud Functions 2nd gen

  To compare the concurrency management, I will simulate a heavy load with the tool wrk on both runtimes. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• Does akk http meet your performance expectation in production?

  Try re-running your benchmarks using wrk (https://github.com/wg/wrk) and see how the results compare. I suspect the bottleneck is Locust itself. Source: over 2 years ago

• Generating random http/https traffic

  Take a look at wrk (https://github.com/wg/wrk), it might do the trick. Source: over 2 years ago

• Container-to-Container Communication

  It would be more of apples to apples comparison to run it on the same setup you ran ab on. You can grab wrk here: https://github.com/wg/wrk. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
