Redis benchmark is the utility to check the performance of Redis by running n commands simultaneously.
Syntax
Following is the basic syntax of Redis benchmark.
redis-benchmark [option] [option value]
Example
Following example checks Redis by calling 100000 commands.
redis-benchmark -n 100000 PING_INLINE: 141043.72 requests per second PING_BULK: 142857.14 requests per second SET: 141442.72 requests per second GET: 145348.83 requests per second INCR: 137362.64 requests per second LPUSH: 145348.83 requests per second LPOP: 146198.83 requests per second SADD: 146198.83 requests per second SPOP: 149253.73 requests per second LPUSH (needed to benchmark LRANGE): 148588.42 requests per second LRANGE_100 (first 100 elements): 58411.21 requests per second LRANGE_300 (first 300 elements): 21195.42 requests per second LRANGE_500 (first 450 elements): 14539.11 requests per second LRANGE_600 (first 600 elements): 10504.20 requests per second MSET (10 keys): 93283.58 requests per second
Following is a list of available options in Redis benchmark.
| Sr.No | Option | Description | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | -h | Specifies server host name | 127.0.0.1 |
| 2 | -p | Specifies server port | 6379 |
| 3 | -s | Specifies server socket | |
| 4 | -c | Specifies the number of parallel connections | 50 |
| 5 | -n | Specifies the total number of requests | 10000 |
| 6 | -d | Specifies data size of SET/GET value in bytes | 2 |
| 7 | -k | 1=keep alive, 0=reconnect | 1 |
| 8 | -r | Use random keys for SET/GET/INCR, random values for SADD | |
| 9 | -p | Pipeline <numreq> requests | 1 |
| 10 | -h | Specifies server host name | |
| 11 | -q | Forces Quiet to Redis. Just shows query/sec values | |
| 12 | –csv | Output in CSV format | |
| 13 | -l | Generates loop, Run the tests forever | |
| 14 | -t | Only runs the comma-separated list of tests | |
| 15 | -I | Idle mode. Just opens N idle connections and wait |
Example
Following example shows the multiple usage options in Redis benchmark utility.
redis-benchmark -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6379 -t set,lpush -n 100000 -q SET: 146198.83 requests per second LPUSH: 145560.41 requests per second
