Hi Bas,

Has anyone ever done any test on how much of a performance hit an ADP
page is (asuming minimal processing, of course!) over fastpath
returning a static page?

I did some testing that goes in this direction concering cached / noncached ADPs and static files. Here are the numbers that are relevant to your question (all this was done on an aging Sun Ultra 2, so the abs. numbers are pretty low).

The tests where run with Apaches 'ab' utility with 10000 requests and 4
concurrent threads (ab -n 10000 -c 4 $url) and the document length was
3053 bytes.

Static html file:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
  Requests per second:    446.21 [#/sec] (mean)
  Time per request:       8.964 [ms] (mean)
  Time per request:       2.241 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent
                                      requests)
  Connection Times (ms)
                min  mean[+/-sd] median   max
  Connect:        0    0   0.6      0      37
  Processing:     2    7   2.7      7      94
  Waiting:        0    4   2.7      5      93
  Total:          2    7   2.8      7      94


Same file wrapped in an ADP (<% ns_adp_puts {....} %>): ----------------------------------------------------------------- Requests per second: 290.69 [#/sec] (mean) Time per request: 13.760 [ms] (mean) Time per request: 3.440 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests) Connection Times (ms) min mean[+/-sd] median max Connect: 0 0 0.2 0 7 Processing: 2 12 6.8 13 246 Waiting: 0 6 6.7 5 244 Total: 2 12 6.8 13 246

Doubeling the file size changes little.

Static html file:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
  Requests per second:    464.74 [#/sec] (mean)
  Time per request:       8.607 [ms] (mean)
  Time per request:       2.152 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent
                                      requests)
  Connection Times (ms)
                min  mean[+/-sd] median   max
  Connect:        0    0   0.3      0       7
