High-performance benchmarking with Web Polygraph
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the design and implementation of Web Polygraph, a tool for benchmarking HTTP intermediaries. We discuss various challenges involved in simulating Web traffic and in developing a portable, high performance tool for generating such traffic. Polygraph’s simulation models, as well as our experiences with developing and running the benchmark, may be useful for Web proxy developers, performance analysts, and researchers interested in Web traffic simulation.

Today, caching web proxies use general-purpose le systems to store web objects. Proxies, e.g., Squid or Apache, when running on a UNIX system, typically use the standard UNIX le system (UFS) for this purpose. UFS was designed for research and engineering environments, which have di erent characteristics from that of a caching web proxy. Some of the di erences are high temporal locality, relaxed...
متن کاملEvaluation of Performance of Cooperative Web Caching with Web Polygraph
This paper presents a framework for evaluating the performance of cooperative Web cache hierarchies. Web Polygraph is employed to provide an environment for simulation, to generate desired workloads, and to obtain performance statistics from the standpoint of clients and servers. Squeezer, a proxy cache log analysis tool, provides detailed cache statistics including information about cache coop...

متن کاملSelecting Secure Web Applications Using Trustworthiness Benchmarking
The multiplicity of existing software and component alternatives for web applications, especially in open source communities, has boosted interest in suitable benchmarks, able to assist in the selection of candidate solutions, concerning several quality attributes. However, the huge success of performance and dependability benchmarking contrasts the small advances in security benchmarking. Trad...
متن کاملKernel Support for Faster Web Proxies
This paper proposes two mechanisms for reducing the communication-related overheads of Web applications. One mechanism is user-level connection tracking, which allows an application to coordinate its non-blocking I/O operations with significantly fewer system calls than previously possible. The other mechanism is data-stream splicing, which allows a Web proxy application to forward data between...
