-How fast is CherryPy ?
-**********************
-
-Introduction
-============
-
-When people ask this question, they usually mean "how fast will my CherryPy-based application be ?".
-
-In 99% of the cases, the answer is "this depends on your actual application code, not on !CherryPy itself".
-
-The reason is that, for 99% of the real-world dynamic applications, most of the time spent to return a page will be spent in your actual application code, and the time actually spent in the CherryPy code will be negligible.
-
-For instance, a typical page that requires a few database calls to be built might take in total 200ms to be served. Out of these 200ms, about 2ms will be spent by CherryPy itself, and 198ms will be spend in your actual database calls and page rendering...
-
-So you can see that, if you want to optimize anything, you should really optimize your actual application code before you try to optimize !CherryPy
-
-Raw speed of the CherryPy HTTP server
-=====================================
-
-Despite the real-life most common scenario explained in the introduction, some people still want to know the raw speed of the CherryPy HTTP server.
-So I sat down and did some benchmarking...
-
-About the benchmark
--------------------
-
-This benchmarking only makes sense on very small documents, otherwise we're no longer measuring the raw speed of the HTTP server, but also the speed of the application ...
-
-This benchmarking was performed on a laptop in the following environment:
- * Processor: Pentium M 1.6 Ghz
- * RAM: 1GB
- * Windows XP 2
- * Load testing tool: ab from Apache2
- * CherryPy version: SVN snapshot on 2005/01/13
-
-Note that "ab" was running on the same machine as the CherryPy server, so CherryPy is probably a bit faster than what we're getting.
-
-Test 1: Dynamic content / single threaded server
-------------------------------------------------
-
-I used the following basic CherryPy app::
-
- #!python
- from cherrypy import cpg
- class Root:
- def index(self):
- return "OK"
- index.exposed = True
-
- cpg.root = Root()
-
- cpg.server.start(configMap = {'socketPort': 10000})
-
-Here are the "ab" results::
-
- $ ./ab.exe -n 1000 http://localhost:10000/

-
-Test 2: Dynamic content / multi threaded server
------------------------------------------------
-
-I used the same code as test 1, but started CherryPy in thread-pool mode, with 10 threads.
-I also told "ab" to simulate 10 concurrent users ...
-Here are the "ab" results::
-
- $ ./ab.exe -c 10 -n 1000 http://localhost:10000/

-As you can see, CherryPy averaged 429 requests/second, which is a bit less than test 1 (there is a small thread-switching overhead), but is still pretty good ...
-
-Test 3: Static content / single threaded server
------------------------------------------------
-
-This time, I used CherryPy to serve a static file from disc.
-The file was a simple text containing "OK".
-Here was the config file for CherryPy::
-
- [server]
- socketPort = 10000
-
- [staticContent]
- static.html = static.html
-
-
-Here are the "ab" results::
-
- $ ./ab.exe -n 1000 http://localhost:10000/static.html
