Orbitale Benchmarker

A simple PHP tool to benchmark PHP scripts.

Install

You can install Benchmarker in different ways:

  • Using the phar file. Go to the Releases page and download the latest benchmarker.phar archive.
  • In an existing project:
    $ composer require orbitale/benchmarker
    
    And then run it via vendor/bin/benchmarker.
  • In a separate directory with Composer:
    $ composer create-project orbitale/benchmarker benchmarker
    $ cd benchmarker/
    $ php bin/benchmarker
    
  • In a separate directory, using Git:
    $ git clone [email protected]:Orbitale/Benchmarker.git
    $ cd benchmarker/
    $ php bin/benchmarker
    
  • By building the .phar file manually with Box:
    # Install the project in any directory via "composer create" or "git clone"
    $ box build
    # Find the file in build/benchmarker.phar
    

Usage

Create tests

You can use this command to create test files:

$ benchmarker create test_file.php

 No test names provided

 Provide a name for one test (or leave empty if you have finished)::
 > first test

 Provide a name for one test (or leave empty if you have finished)::
 > second test

 Provide a name for one test (or leave empty if you have finished)::
 >
 

 [OK] Created benchmark at test_file.php


See File Format to know what the file will look like and how to create tests in them.

Running the tests

There are two ways to use the benchmarker: sequential or parallel execution.

Sequential

$ benchmarker run my_test.php --count=1000

(Check the run command help to know other usages)

Parallel

$ benchmarker parallel test_one.php test_two --count=1000

(Check the parallel command help to know other usages) ℹ️ Note: Parallelization is only usable with multiple files, else it won't change anything.

File format

A test file must return an iterable with callables, each callable being a test for the benchmark.

You can do anything you want in it: autoload, create global vars, etc.

If you use parallelization, you are guaranteed that a file execution will be isolated from other tests.

Here is an example of a test file:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

return (function(){
    yield 'simple' => function(){
        $a = 'quote';
    };
    yield 'double' => function(){
        $a = "quote";
    };
})();

You can see more examples in the examples directory.
