Benchmarking tool

The benchmarks have been performed using wrk, locally.

Check the raw output from wrk here.

Try it yourself

To run the code please follow the steps -

1. Download the repository as a zip, or clone/fork it.
2. cd rust-framework-benchmarks
3. cargo build --release
4. Open multiple terminals and start each server (if you want to run all simultaneously). Eg, ./target/release/actix on one, ./target/release/hyper on another and so on.
5. Run batch tests - sh ./start-test.sh

All the output will be stored in perf/*

Machine used

M1 Max MacBook Pro 2021 - 64GB ram, 10 CPU cores and 32 GPU cores

Suggestions and changes

All the suggestions, code changes or additions of another web framework is appreciated. I'd like to keep the code as close as a real world scenario, instead of optimising it to the metal.
