Add a benchmark #16

Closed skywhale closed 1 year ago

skywhale commented 3 years ago

We need to be able to compare performance of the actor system before and after the restructuring
Ideally we also have benchmark against other actor crates in the wild

strohel commented 3 years ago

Perhaps one of the examples could be adapted as a simple benchmark. Sending one small message across the system to measure latency. Send a longer stream of bigger messages, measure the total time as a proxy to throughput.

Challenge: benchmark the crate itself rather than crossbeam, and OS CPU scheduler (due to the thread-based architecture).

Added a simple benchmark suite in 6bbed84f7ba60243cf94df70f0a2f3ab43807e4d, but I think it's still probably flawed and could use some more attention if we want to take the numbers seriously.

Let's call this done, we now have various actor "shape" benches plus a pub/sub bench.
