Google PageSpeed is a family of tools by Google, Inc. [1] designed to help optimize website performance. [2] It was introduced at a Developer Conference in 2010. [3] [4] There are four main components of PageSpeed family tools:
In computing httperf (pronounced h-t-t-perf) is a testing tool to measure the performance of web servers. It was originally developed by David Mosberger and other staff at Hewlett-Packard Research Laboratories. [1] httperf can test HTTP pipelining workloads. [2]
ApacheBench (ab is the real program file name) is a single-threaded command line computer program used for benchmarking (measuring the performance of) HTTP web servers. [1] Originally it was used to test the Apache HTTP Server but it is generic enough to test any web server supporting HTTP/1.0 or HTTP/1.1 protocol versions.
Load testing (stress/performance testing) a web server can be performed using automation/analysis tools such as: Apache JMeter, an open-source Java load testing tool; ApacheBench (or ab), a command line program bundled with Apache HTTP Server; Siege, an open-source web-server load testing and benchmarking tool; Wrk, an open-source C load ...
Performance measures include elapsed time of the test, the amount of data transferred (including headers), the response time of the server, its transaction rate, its throughput, its concurrency and the number of times it returned OK. These measures are quantified and reported at the end of each run. [4] This is a sample of siege output:
64-bit and 32-bit applications, C, C++, .NET, and dlls generated by any language compiler. Performance and memory profiler that identifies time-intensive functions and detects memory leaks and errors. Proprietary gprof: Linux/Unix Any language supported by gcc: Several tools with combined sampling and call-graph profiling.
CoreMark draws on the strengths that made Dhrystone so resilient - it is small, portable, easy to understand, free, and displays a single number benchmark score. Unlike Dhrystone, CoreMark has specific run and reporting rules, and was designed to avoid the well understood issues that have been cited with Dhrystone .
HammerDB is a database load testing and benchmarking tool. HammerDB is used to create a test schema, load it with data and simulate the workload of multiple virtual users against the database for both transactional and analytic scenarios.
