Performance tests for 1 1 and higher

 Work in progress

 

The tests below were conducted from a VM client (win7) located in Utrecht against a VM server (debian lenny) located in Amsterdam. The network path was at least 1 Gbps (with 2-10Gbps path segments in between), 5 hops and a latency of approx. 3-5 ms (both IPv6 and IPv4).

When testing other installs make a note of client location, server location, number of network hops and latency (with traceroute) and whether IPV6 and/or SSL is used.

The table contains upload times (mm:ss) computed from the timestamp of the call to fs_uploadit.php in the apache log (start) and the timestamp of the first fs_main.php call in the apache log after that (stop).

Notes

1 There appears to be an issue with uploads from Chrome on Win7 using the default NSS libraries. See http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=69813#c45
