Benchmark Fabric

Simple benchmarking tool for measuring the performance of Fabric++

Tested with Node v8.4

Scripts

1. scripts/chaincode.sh: install and instantiate the chaincode.
2. scripts/generate_smallbank.sh: sample experiment script which runs multiple configurations of smallbank benchmark
3. scripts/network.sh: start/stop the fabric cluster
4. scripts/prepare-artifacts.sh: prepare different artifacts for initializing the fabric network.
5. scripts/prepare-network.sh: wrapper scripts which initializes the network, and install/instantiates the chaincode.
6. scripts/registry.sh: start the docker registry service
7. scripts/template-gen.sh: script to generate the yaml files used by docker, and custom configtx files.

src

1. src/admin.js: register an admin account used by the benchmark
2. src/client.js: simple client which is used to invoke the chaincodes
3. src/benchmark.js: simple benchmarking client which submits transactions at a specified rate to the fabric network.

Throughput

The throughput is measured from the log files written by one of the fabric nodes.

Distributed Benchmarking

The benchmark-fabric directory must pe copied to a NFS filesystem mounted on all nodes participating in the fabric network. sample_benchmark.sh file provides a simple example of how the benchmark can be invoked.
