Hi all, I am still benchmarking Cherokee 0.99.20 on Ubuntu 9.04 on an Intel i7 940 (4 cores)
One month ago, I found that Apache2 was faster than Cherokee (14 000 Req/s vs 10 000 Req/s for serving small static files with a 'ab -n 1000 -c 20') As I was surprised, Cherokee claim to be the fastest, I was wondering wether I have a bad linux environnement. So I tried Nginx, and this is really surprising : For a small static file, Nginx is able to do 25 000 Req/s (ab -n 100000 -c 20) and even 59 790 Req/s with the keep-alive (ab -k -n 100000 -c 20) !! In the same time, I tried to send keep-alive requests to cherokee (ab -k -n 10000 -c 20) and I discovered that performance is falling from 10 000 Req/s without keep-alive to only 501 Req/s with keep-alive !!! So, with keep-alive, on ubuntu 9.04, Nginx is really 119x faster than cherokee : As I have seen some people in the mailing list having same kind of slowlyness on Ubuntu 9.04 I wonder whether there is a referenced problem with this Linux : do you know ?
