SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
**h2load** [OPTIONS]... [URI]...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
benchmarking tool for HTTP/2 and SPDY server
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: <URI>
|
|
|
|
Specify URI to access. Multiple URIs can be specified.
|
|
URIs are used in this order for each client. All URIs
|
|
are used, then first URI is used and then 2nd URI, and
|
|
so on. The scheme, host and port in the subsequent
|
|
URIs, if present, are ignored. Those in the first URI
|
|
are used solely. Definition of a base URI overrides all
|
|
scheme, host or port values.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -n, --requests=<N>
|
|
|
|
Number of requests.
|
|
|
|
Default: ``1``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -c, --clients=<N>
|
|
|
|
Number of concurrent clients.
|
|
|
|
Default: ``1``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -t, --threads=<N>
|
|
|
|
Number of native threads.
|
|
|
|
Default: ``1``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -i, --input-file=<PATH>
|
|
|
|
Path of a file with multiple URIs are separated by EOLs.
|
|
This option will disable URIs getting from command-line.
|
|
If '-' is given as <PATH>, URIs will be read from stdin.
|
|
URIs are used in this order for each client. All URIs
|
|
are used, then first URI is used and then 2nd URI, and
|
|
so on. The scheme, host and port in the subsequent
|
|
URIs, if present, are ignored. Those in the first URI
|
|
are used solely. Definition of a base URI overrides all
|
|
scheme, host or port values.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -m, --max-concurrent-streams=(auto|<N>)
|
|
|
|
Max concurrent streams to issue per session. If "auto"
|
|
is given, the number of given URIs is used.
|
|
|
|
Default: ``auto``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -w, --window-bits=<N>
|
|
|
|
Sets the stream level initial window size to (2\*\*<N>)-1.
|
|
For SPDY, 2**<N> is used instead.
|
|
|
|
Default: ``30``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -W, --connection-window-bits=<N>
|
|
|
|
Sets the connection level initial window size to
|
|
(2**<N>)-1. For SPDY, if <N> is strictly less than 16,
|
|
this option is ignored. Otherwise 2\*\*<N> is used for
|
|
SPDY.
|
|
|
|
Default: ``30``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -H, --header=<HEADER>
|
|
|
|
Add/Override a header to the requests.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --ciphers=<SUITE>
|
|
|
|
Set allowed cipher list. The format of the string is
|
|
described in OpenSSL ciphers(1).
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -p, --no-tls-proto=<PROTOID>
|
|
|
|
Specify ALPN identifier of the protocol to be used when
|
|
accessing http URI without SSL/TLS.
|
|
Available protocols: spdy/2, spdy/3, spdy/3.1 and h2c
|
|
|
|
Default: ``h2c``
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -d, --data=<PATH>
|
|
|
|
Post FILE to server. The request method is changed to
|
|
POST.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -r, --rate=<N>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the fixed rate at which connections are
|
|
created. The rate must be a positive integer,
|
|
representing the number of connections to be made per
|
|
second. When the rate is 0, the program will run as it
|
|
normally does, creating connections at whatever variable
|
|
rate it wants. The default value for this option is 0.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -C, --num-conns=<N>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the total number of connections to create.
|
|
The total number of connections must be a positive
|
|
integer. On each connection, :option:`-m` requests are made. The
|
|
test stops once as soon as the <N> connections have
|
|
either completed or failed. When the number of
|
|
connections is 0, the program will run as it normally
|
|
does, creating as many connections as it needs in order
|
|
to make the :option:`-n` requests specified. The default value
|
|
for this option is 0. The :option:`-n` option is not required if
|
|
the :option:`-C` option is being used.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -T, --connection-active-timeout=<N>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the maximum time that h2load is willing to
|
|
keep a connection open, regardless of the activity on
|
|
said connection. <N> must be a positive integer,
|
|
specifying the number of seconds to wait. When no
|
|
timeout value is set (either active or inactive), h2load
|
|
will keep a connection open indefinitely, waiting for a
|
|
response.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -N, --connection-inactivity-timeout=<N>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the amount of time that h2load is willing to
|
|
wait to see activity on a given connection. <N> must be
|
|
a positive integer, specifying the number of seconds to
|
|
wait. When no timeout value is set (either active or
|
|
inactive), h2load will keep a connection open
|
|
indefinitely, waiting for a response.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --timing-script-file=<PATH>
|
|
|
|
Path of a file containing one or more lines separated by
|
|
EOLs. Each script line is composed of two tab-separated
|
|
fields. The first field represents the time offset from
|
|
the start of execution, expressed as milliseconds with
|
|
microsecond resolution. The second field represents the
|
|
URI. This option will disable URIs getting from
|
|
command-line. If '-' is given as <PATH>, script lines
|
|
will be read from stdin. Script lines are used in order
|
|
for each client. If :option:`-n` is given, it must be less than
|
|
or equal to the number of script lines, larger values are
|
|
clamped to the number of script lines. If :option:`-n` is
|
|
not given, the number of requests will default to the
|
|
number of script lines. The scheme, host and port defined
|
|
in the first URI are used solely. Values contained in
|
|
other URIs, if present, are ignored. Definition of a
|
|
base URI overrides all scheme, host or port values.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -B, --base-uri=<URI>
|
|
|
|
Specify URI from which the scheme, host and port will be
|
|
used for all requests. The base URI overrides all
|
|
values defined either at the command line or inside
|
|
input files.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -v, --verbose
|
|
|
|
Output debug information.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --version
|
|
|
|
Display version information and exit.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -h, --help
|
|
|
|
Display this help and exit.

|
|
requests
|
|
total

|
|
The number of requests h2load has started.
|
|
done
|

|
|
The number of requests failed, including HTTP level failures
|
|
(non-successful HTTP status code).
|
|
errored
|
|
The number of requests failed, except for HTTP level failures.
|
|
This is the subset of the number reported in ``failed`` and most
|
|
likely the network level failures or stream was reset by
|
|
RST_STREAM.
|
|
timeout
|
|
The number of requests whose connection timed out before they were

|
|
|
|
FLOW CONTROL
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
h2load sets large flow control window by default, and effectively
|
|
disables flow control to avoid under utilization of server
|
|
performance. To set smaller flow control window, use :option:`-w` and
|
|
:option:`-W` options. For example, use ``-w16 -W16`` to set default
|
|
window size described in HTTP/2 and SPDY protocol specification.
