NAME

Bencher::Scenario::DataThrottling - Benchmark modules that do throttling

VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of Bencher::Scenario::DataThrottling (from Perl distribution Bencher-Scenario-DataThrottling), released on 2020-02-19.

SYNOPSIS

To run benchmark with default option:

 % bencher -m DataThrottling

To run module startup overhead benchmark:

 % bencher --module-startup -m DataThrottling

For more options (dump scenario, list/include/exclude/add participants, list/include/exclude/add datasets, etc), see bencher or run bencher --help.

DESCRIPTION

Packaging a benchmark script as a Bencher scenario makes it convenient to include/exclude/add participants/datasets (either via CLI or Perl code), send the result to a central repository, among others . See Bencher and bencher (CLI) for more details.

BENCHMARKED MODULES

Version numbers shown below are the versions used when running the sample benchmark.

Data::Throttler 0.08

Data::Throttler_CHI 0.001

BENCHMARK PARTICIPANTS

  • Data::Throttler (Memory backend) (perl_code)

    Code template:

     my $t = Data::Throttler->new(max_items=><max_items>, interval=><interval>); for (1..<inserts>) { $t->try_push }
  • Data::Throttler_CHI (Memory backend) (perl_code)

    Code template:

     require CHI; my $t = Data::Throttler_CHI->new(max_items=><max_items>, interval=><interval>, cache=>CHI->new(driver=>"Memory", datastore=>{})); for (1..<inserts>) { $t->try_push }

BENCHMARK DATASETS
