Write "how to benchmark Electric for your application" tutorial #1475

Open KyleAMathews opened 2 months ago

KyleAMathews commented 2 months ago

Help people create ad-hoc benchmarks to test what Electric's performance would be like for their application i.e. latency for uncached/cached shape fetching, number of clients that can be connected receiving live updates, latency for live updates, etc.

Moving this to the 1st beta milestone — helping people benchmark Electric isn't a priority until it's ready to actually use in production. We'll start publishing our own benchmarks in the meantime and people who are interested can figure it out themselves in the meantime with standard http load test tools.

Added to https://github.com/electric-sql/electric/milestone/2 as I'll try to document this when adding the initial benchmarks page. Can be some pointers into readme steps to start with.
