2019-05-12test/benchmark/readinput: demo for slowly uploading clients
This is intended to demonstrate how badly we suck at dealing with slow clients making uploads. It can help users evaluate alternative fully-buffering reverse proxies, because nginx should not be the only option.

This is intended to demonstrate how badly we suck at dealing with slow clients. It can help users evaluate alternative fully-buffering reverse proxies, because nginx should not be the only option. Update the benchmark README while we're at it
2009-08-15Drop the micro benchmarks
It's not worth the effort to keep the internal API consistent between non-bugfix versions.
2009-03-22All new benchmarks, old ones removed
dd.ru is a rackup file is intended as a dd(1)-like test for I/O performance. There are also individual request, response, and big_request benchmarks for micro benchmarking some parts of Unicorn. The rest of the benchmarks are gone: I am not interested in performance comparisons (and pissing matches) with other web servers (or their fanboys/girls). I will _NEVER_ publically publish benchmarks comparing Unicorn against other web servers. I will only compare Unicorn against other versions of Unicorn, possibly on different platforms. Neutral third-parties are invited to publish their own benchmarks (along with detailed procedures, version numbers and other details) comparing Unicorn to other servers.
