A few years ago I've started the Apache::Benchmark project to help me to cope with numerous benchmark tests I wanted to run for the book. I've never released this because I didn't have time to finish it. Now I'm thinking to revive it again and develop it based on Apache::Test, reusing its auto-configuration and start/stop/etc facilities.
The idea is to develop a framework: - to run tests based on Benchmark.pm to compare performance of various code snippets, under various configurations. - to run performance tests based on ApacheBench (and other web-bench clients) - to run crash testing, similar to httpd-test flood framework Doug, do you think we can start it as a sub-project like Apache-Test and Apache-Registry under the same root? Later on we can always split it. I really want it to be a sub-tree so we can benchmark things without installing modperl. That's where being a part of modperl-2.0 tree will help a lot, at least during the development period. or shell we start an official mod_perl sub-projects tree? I don't feel like trying to build a community of developers somewhere outside. Keeping cvs and mailing list... I'd rather re-use the infrustructure we have already and let everybody a chance to contribute. Just like Apache-Test, Apache-Benchmark could be used outside of mod_perl. _____________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide http://perl.apache.org/guide mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ticketmaster.com http://apacheweek.com http://singlesheaven.com http://perl.apache.org http://perlmonth.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
