go-codec-bench
This is a comparison of different binary and text encodings.
We compare the codecs provided by github.com/ugorji/go/codec package, against other libraries:
github.com/ugorji/go/codec provides:
- msgpack: [http://github.com/msgpack/msgpack]
- binc: [http://github.com/ugorji/binc]
- cbor: [http://cbor.io] [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7049]
- simple:
- json: [http://json.org] [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159]
Other codecs compared include:
- gopkg.in/vmihailenco/msgpack.v2
- gopkg.in/mgo.v2/bson
- github.com/davecgh/go-xdr/xdr2
- github.com/Sereal/Sereal/Go/sereal
- code.google.com/p/cbor/go
- github.com/tinylib/msgp
- github.com/tinylib/msgp
- github.com/pquerna/ffjson/ffjson
- bitbucket.org/bodhisnarkva/cbor/go
- github.com/json-iterator/go
- github.com/mailru/easyjson
Data
The data being serialized is a TestStruc randomly generated values.
See https://github.com/ugorji/go-codec-bench/blob/master/codec/values_test.go for the
definition of the TestStruc.
Run Benchmarks
See https://github.com/ugorji/go-codec-bench/blob/master/codec/bench.sh for how to download the external libraries which we benchmark against, generate the files for the types when needed, and run the suite of tests.
The 3 suite of benchmarks are
- CodecSuite
- XSuite
CodecXSuite
# Note that `bench.sh` may be in the codec sub-directory, and should be run from there. # download the code and all its dependencies ./bench.sh -d # code-generate files needed for benchmarks against ffjson, easyjson, msgp, etc ./bench.sh -c # run the full suite of tests ./bench.sh -s # Below, see how to just run some specific suite of tests, knowing the right tags and flags ... # See bench.sh for different iterations # Run suite of tests in default mode (selectively using unsafe in specific areas) go test -tags "alltests x" -bench "CodecXSuite" -benchmem # Run suite of tests in safe mode (no usage of unsafe) go test -tags "alltests x safe" -bench "CodecXSuite" -benchmem # Run suite of tests in codecgen mode, including all tests which are generated (msgp, ffjson, etc) go test -tags "alltests x generated" -bench "CodecXGenSuite" -benchmem
Issues
The following issues are seen currently (11/20/2014):
- code.google.com/p/cbor/go fails on encoding and decoding the test struct
- github.com/davecgh/go-xdr/xdr2 fails on encoding and decoding the test struct
- github.com/Sereal/Sereal/Go/sereal fails on decoding the serialized test struct
Representative Benchmark Results
Please see the benchmarking blog post for detailed representative results.
A snapshot of some results on my 2016 MacBook Pro is below.
Note: errors are truncated, and lines re-arranged, for readability.
Below are results of running the entire suite on 2017-11-20 (ie running ./bench.sh -s).
What you should notice:
- Results get better with codecgen, showing about 20-50% performance improvement.
Users should carefully weigh the performance improvements against the
usability and binary-size increases, as performance is already extremely good
without the codecgen path.
See https://github.com/ugorji/go-codec-bench/blob/master/bench.out.txt for latest run of bench.sh as of 2017-11-20
