Use bench
command to start benchmark test.
By default, bgperf
benchmarks GoBGP.
bgperf
boots 100 BGP test peers each advertises 100 routes to GoBGP
.
$ sudo ./bgperf.py bench
run tester
tester booting.. (100/100)
run gobgp
elapsed: 16sec, cpu: 0.20%, mem: 580.90MB
elapsed time: 11sec
To change a target implementation, use -t
option.
Currently, bgperf
supports BIRD and Quagga
other than GoBGP.
$ sudo ./bgperf.py bench -t bird
run tester
tester booting.. (100/100)
run bird
elapsed: 16sec, cpu: 0.00%, mem: 147.55MB
elapsed time: 11sec
$ sudo ./bgperf.py bench -t quagga
run tester
tester booting.. (100/100)
run quagga
elapsed: 33sec, cpu: 0.02%, mem: 477.93MB
elapsed time: 28sec
To change a load, use following options.
-n
: the number of BGP test peer (default 100)-p
: the number of prefix each peer advertise (default 100)-a
: the number of as-path filter (default 0)-e
: the number of prefix-list filter (default 0)-c
: the number of community-list filter (default 0)-x
: the number of ext-community-list filter (default 0)
$ sudo ./bgperf.py bench -n 200 -p 50
run tester
tester booting.. (200/200)
run gobgp
elapsed: 23sec, cpu: 0.02%, mem: 1.26GB
elapsed time: 18sec
For a comprehensive list of options, run sudo ./bgperf.py bench --help
