| # Protocol Buffers Benchmarks |
| |
| This directory contains benchmarking schemas and data sets that you |
| can use to test a variety of performance scenarios against your |
| protobuf language runtime. |
| |
| The schema for the datasets is described in `benchmarks.proto`. |
| |
| Generate the data sets like so: |
| |
| ``` |
| $ make |
| $ ./generate-datasets |
| Wrote dataset: dataset.google_message1_proto3.pb |
| Wrote dataset: dataset.google_message1_proto2.pb |
| Wrote dataset: dataset.google_message2.pb |
| $ |
| ``` |
| |
| Each data set will be written to its own file. Benchmarks will |
| likely want to run several benchmarks against each data set (parse, |
| serialize, possibly JSON, possibly using different APIs, etc). |
| |
| We would like to add more data sets. In general we will favor data sets |
| that make the overall suite diverse without being too large or having |
| too many similar tests. Ideally everyone can run through the entire |
| suite without the test run getting too long. |
