Re: Performance (was Re: [JBoss-user] JBoss verses Orion)

2001-04-02 Thread James Cook

It is still considered "early release".

http://java.sun.com/j2ee/ecperf/

The JSR's public review is closed.

I think we will see a lot more of it when it is finalized, but now is the time
to start getting instructions together for deployment. This will entail the same
items that you have provided for the PetStore demo. Hopefully just some
deployment descriptors, and a program/script to creat/populate database tables.

It is my belief that there is a great disparity in performance among the many
ejb containers. I think ECPerf will be a huge success if it is easily deployed
and if it works! ;-)

Performance (was Re: [JBoss-user] JBoss verses Orion)

2001-03-31 Thread danch

I've spent the day running some test similiar to Paul's.

My environment is Linux on a PIII 500, running Sun's 1.3 and 1.3.1beta JDKs.

In the case of a standalone client looping and repeatedly calling the 
same method on a stateless session bean, I found that Orion averaged 
about 3ms. per invocation where JBoss was averaging 6-10 ms/invocation. 
There was no logging output from either app. server or the beans. 
Something interesting about the spread of numbers in JBoss' case is that 
the low numbers were where it was running off of a local drive, whereas 
the high numbers where off of an NFS share. What prompted me to make 
that shift (from NFS in my home to a local /usr/local) was seeing some 
classloader and unix filesystem activity with very high 'count' values 
in a hprof output (from 'java -Xrunhprof' that is).
At any rate, it seems that something in JBoss might be hitting disk a 
bit more than i'd expect once it gets into a steady running state: 
shouldn't classes be loaded at that point? Is it possible that some 
configuration of classloaders is still searching jar files even when the 
class is loaded?

Paul, had you written tests where the bean actually did work? I'm 
curious to see if the ~3-6 second differention in invocation times is a 
constant or not.

I also made a servlet which performs an equivalent test in-VM. This was 
even more disturbing, with Orion taking 10-50 ms to perform 5000 
invocations and JBoss/Tomcat taking 2250 or thereabouts. This is such a 
huge difference that I have to believe that optimized invocations are 
broken in my configuration.

At this point, I'm about at the end of what I can find from the standard 
runhprof output. I'm trying to get JProbe installed, but that isn't 
going all that well. I should be able to post my client and bean 
tommorrow, if anyone is curious.


thanks,
danch

 To test this I wrote a simple session bean with one get method that

 The client looped 10,000 times calling the getter. The Orion version

 Other tests we ran had Orion running 4x faster.
 
 It seems that JBoss certainly is performance limited.

And who after this will have the guts to argue that we don't need a full
time dedicated core that professionally integrates and QAs the code.  It was
running beautifully not so long ago...

I rest my case.

Stuff like this is killing us, makes us look like amateurs...the answer to
our problem is $$$

And I am working on it, as hard as i can...
