</dependency>

Quick Start

final RestClient client = RestClient.ofDefault();

final String entity = client.post("http://127.0.0.1:8081/")
                        .maxRetries(3)     //设置重试次数
                        .readTimeout(3000)      //读超时
                        .entity("Hello Server")
                        .execute()
                        .toCompletableFuture()
                        .get()
                        .bodyToEntity(String.class);

Performance

Test cases

• We built an echo server by ESA-HTTPServer and used ESA-RestClient(1.0.0)、ESA-HttpClient(1.0.0) to do the requests for RPS testing with fixed string:'OK' and different ratio of asynchronous to synchronous requests.This is because if all requests are executed asynchronously, many requests are requesting to obtain connections, resulting in errors. Therefore, the test method is to use asynchronous and synchronous alternately to make requests, so as to achieve the best performance.
• Also we used Apache HttpComponents(5.1.2) and OK-HttpClient(4.9.2) to build a client which is same with above for RPS testing.

Hardware Used

We used the following software for the testing:

	OS	CPU	Mem(G)
client	CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810(docker)	4	8
server	CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810(docker)	8	16
