For best results, two machines should be used for the test, one as the Sender Host (Client), the other as the Receiver Host (Server).
FIX Antenna .NET Core performance can be measured by running the following samples: \Samples\Latency\Sender and \Samples\Latency\Server.
Configuration file fixengine.properties can be found in the application folder (Sender or Server).
Server starts as acceptors, and waiting for incoming connection. Sender connects as initiator to the Server and sends WarmUpCycleCount messages as warm-up. After that, Sender sends NoOfMessages (100 000 by default) with MsgType=D. For each D message Server responds with 8 message.
Sender measures time between outgoing D and received 8 messages and stores measured value to HdrHistogram.
Command line arguments for Server:
Server host port where host is an IP address of server part and port is server's port.
Command line arguments for Sender:
Sender host port where host is an IP address of server part and port is server's port.
User can configure CPU affinity in the fixengine.properties file. By default affinity is set to CPU 0 for both sending and receiving threads:
# This parameter specifies CPU id for the threads of session that send and receive the data from/in socket.
# Please set correct CPU id for better performance
# By default used first CPU (id=0)
cpuAffinity=0Instead of single option cpuAffinity user can use recvCpuAffinity and sendCpuAffinity configuration options to pin sending and receiving threads to different CPU cores.
After the NoOfMessages sent, the collected data exported as .hgrm file to the Result folder of the Sender.
The results were collected on laptop running Win10 on i5-10310U @1.7Ghz
Parameters:
Server 127.0.0.1 3010
Sender 127.0.0.1 3010
Both parts of the test are running on the same laptop and no any optimizations applied. Value column is the time in µs.
