go-grpc-bench

This is a repo I created to host some benchmarks I was running with grpc-go, grpc-go (using ServeHTTP) and go-connect. I made this repo to make it easier for me to add profiling and tweak more server settings when testing.

Terminology

• Profiles: a combination of the gRPC server and server settings. For this project, it's a small shell script that starts the server.
• Scenarios: the settings used to run the benchmark. For this project, it's a JSON file with the relevant ghz configuration.
• Results: For this project, they live in results/{YYYY-MM-DD}/{SCENARIO}/{PROFILE}.json.

Running the project

Ensure that you have ghz installed, and just run make to run all the scenarios:

make

To run a specific scenario, just use the name like these commands (there are only two scenarios right now):

make empty
make complex
