Lets test Laravel Octane

Laravel Octane Benchmark testing (WORK IN PROGRESS)

This app is a vanilla Laravel 8. I did not install any extra composer packages, expect a dev package to run locally in docker.

We will be using wrk to perform the tests

What we want to test

Comparing PHP-FPM vs Swoole in:

• Basic throughput benchmark
• Sync vs async MySQL and Redis
• Importance of connection pools
• CPU & memory usage

The Tests

We define the following API endpoints to test performance.

Route::get('/ping', function() {
    return response()->json(['message' => 'pong']);
});

Route::get('/users', function () {
    return response()->json(User::query()->paginate());
});

Route::get('/users/{userId}', function (int $userId) {
    return response()->json(User::query()->findOrFail($userId));
});

Route	Response	MySQL	Redis
/api/ping	Returns a string	No	No
/api/users	Returns a paginated list of users	Yes	No
/api/users/:id	Returns a user	Yes	No

We will be running the following commands using wrk. We use 4 threads, 50 connections in 30 seconds per test. Commands to run the test:

• wrk -t4 -c50 -d30s http://localhost/api/ping
• wrk -t4 -c50 -d30s http://localhost/api/users
• wrk -t4 -c50 -d30s http://localhost/api/users/1

Get started locally

• clone repo
• run composer install
• run dock start to run in docker
• run dock art db:seed to generate 5000 users
