Aldo Cortesi b663a224a3 Improve benchmarking 
- The benchmark addon now manages setting up and tearing down the backend and
traffic processes itself.
- Use wrk instead of hey. I get more consistent results with this tool, and hey
shows a strange tail-latency bump that seems artificial.
- Make termination behaviour simpler. The bencmark revealed a bug where .done
events were not called if the proxy was shut down by an addon.

Raw Blame History

This directory contains an addon for benchmarking and profiling mitmproxy. At the moment, this is simply to give developers a quick way to see the impact of their work. Eventually, this might grow into a performance dashboard with historical data, so we can track performance over time.

Setup

Install the following tools:

https://github.com/wg/wrk

go get github.com/cortesi/devd/cmd/devd

You may also want to install snakeviz to make viewing profiles easier:

pip install snakeviz

Now run the benchmark by loading the addon. A typical invocation is as follows:

mitmdump -p0 -q --set benchmark_save_path=/tmp/foo -s ./benchmark.py

This will start up the backend server, run the benchmark, save the results to /tmp/foo.bench and /tmp/foo.prof, and exit.
