Benchmarks
****************************************************************************************************

The benchmarks are done with the ``echo_*`` examples servers. The ``client`` connects and sends/receives as much data as possible within **10s**. The result is the average **MiB/s** in that time, over all connections.

Single Connection

Multiple Connections
********************
The client is run with 10 concurrent connections.

.. note:: There is no **echo_sync** here, as it supports only a single connection.

.. warning:: Don't interpret too much into these benchmarks: A real server would do much more than just echoing everything back. The low-level I/O work is likely to be dominated by parsing or some computation.

The plots were produced by the repository script `echo/benchmark.sh` on GitHub: `benchmark.sh <https://github.com/pgit/asio-coro/blob/master/echo/benchmark.sh>`_.
