WRK-MultiProtocol

a TCP/HTTP & QUIC/HTTP benchmarking tool based on wrk and wrk2

On top of the new QUIC support, WRK-MP still fully supports WRK1/2 features, with even some improvements.

This repository is a modified version of WRK2 http://github.com/gilene/wrk2 with support for QUIC and various small improvements

QUIC support is now limited to HTTP 0.9 over QUIC, made to work against PicoQUIC HTTP server (using the hq ALPN). It also only supports disabled keep-alive for now.

The QUIC support is built using the picoquic library. Refer to picoquic for installation. To enable QUIC support, you must use the -q flag. Except for that most wrk2 documentation applies. We just changed a bit the default behavior, so if you omit the rate (or give -R -1) WRK will behave like the original version, trying to push as many request as possible.

Building

./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install

Support for QUIC

To support QUIC, you must have https://github.com/private-octopus/picoquic installed first.

git clone https://github.com/private-octopus/picoquic.git
cmake -DPICOQUIC_FETCH_PTLS=Y .
make

QUIC usage example

Launch a QUIC server, for instance using picoquic.

./picoquicdemo -p 4433

Launch wrk-mp with:

./wrk -a -R 0 --timeout 100 -q -t 1 -c 1 https://127.0.0.1:4433/1000
