In spite of the fact that I barely spend any time these days working on httperf, I am pleased to note that activity has not been totally absent.
Pretty quickly we’ll be releasing a new version of httperf with a number of enhancements.
The most dramatic change came from Adrian Chad, who implemented a basic port to the libevent notification system. This has dramatically improved the performance of the tool (like in the realm of “orders of magnitude”).
New period variation option –period=vT1,D1,T2,D2….Tn,Dn
The idleconn tool is now optional (disabled by default), and can be built using the –enable-idleconn configure option
New options to print result data in new formats (CSV and Key=Value), however this is still being tested.
The idleconn program has been re-written to use libevents non-blocking dns and connection API.
Also, a number of memory leaks have been plugged with a re-write of the timer system.
libevent is now a build requirement.
httperf will try to compile itself with the system compilers c99 option if available.
