Benchmarks: shedding some light..

Hello there,

Good news everyone! I'm glad to announce that thanks to Miguel Angel
Ajo, there will be a new set of fair, well performed benchmarks
available soon.

The benchmark covers the latest version of: Apache, Cherokee, Lighttpd
and Nginx. All the configurations, scripts and software involved will
be publicly available so anyone can reproduce and validate the
results. I'll let Miguel Angel get into the details when he gets it
ready and properly published.

Actually, it isn't simply a benchmark; it's a whole new application
with which benchmarks can be perform and reproduced seamlessly: It
downloads, compiles, installs and tests each single server. In fact,
in order to do so in the most fair and correct way we've even had to
write a new benchmarking tool [1].

I do hope this software will help us to get rid of lousy benchmarks
and unfortunate arguments once and for all. Besides, with a bit of
lack, the rest of the community will mimic this proactive and positive
example.

So.. let's there be light!! [2]


1.- http://svn.cherokee-project.com/browser/benchmark/README.txt
2.- It's the best thing we can do. I'm quite confident of Cherokee,
actually :-)

Alvaro - thank you and Miguel for this. Excellent effort on all fronts of
Cherokee and we all appreciate it. I look forward to using/seeing these
tools when they are ready.
One question though, will these be running from and against a single host or
will there be a way to create a source/target setup easily? As was mention
in the large threads lately, staying on localhost for example can lead to
potentially misleading results.

Just curious,
Thanks again!

Thank you, and muchas gracias for this effort. This is the best possible
way to clear up all the issues. Nice work, nice response, looking forward
to seeing the results ( although, of course I've been sold on cherokee for
months now ;)
