About

This benchmark compares 5 major Feature Flag SDKs against Switcher Client SDK for Java.
The tests included in this benchmark are focused only in performance and does not reflect nor measure any other SDK capabilities.
The intent is to gain more knowledge and define a baseline to improve Switcher Client SDK overall performance.

Run

Build jar and run the benchmark

mvn clean verify
java -jar target/benchmarks.jar

Tests explained

[Async] testSwitcherRemoteThrottle, testHarness and testOptimizely

Uses in-memory cache by preloading or using async calls to remote service.

[Local] testSwitcherLocal, testSplit and testUnleash

In-memory configuration loaded from file.

* Split SDK does not provide free access to fetch data from remote service - in this test the SDK is returning a default value.

[Remote] testSwitcherRemote

These tests are 100% remote.

Benchmark Type Mode Score Units
FeatureFlagBenchmark.testSwitcherRemoteThrottle Async thrpt 15,255,667.081 ops/s
FeatureFlagBenchmark.testSwitcherLocal Local thrpt 14,254,786.801 ops/s
FeatureFlagBenchmark.testHarness Async thrpt 2,486,530.012 ops/s

FeatureFlagBenchmark.testOptimizely Async thrpt 233,482.488 ops/s
FeatureFlagBenchmark.testSwitcherRemote Remote thrpt 187.247 ops/s

Switcher Client SDK:

  • when Async, can be up to 6x faster than the other SDKs.
  • when Local, can be up to 7x faster than the other SDKs.
  • 100% remote can only be enabled with Switcher Client SDK.
