Consul Benchmark Results

As part of a benchmark, we started a 4 node DigitalOcean cluster to benchmark. There are 3 servers, meaning writes must commit to at least 2 servers. The cluster uses the 16GB DigitalOcean droplet which has the following specs:

  • 8 CPU Cores, 2Ghz
  • 16GB RAM
  • 160GB SSD disk
  • 1Gbps NIC

We used bonnie++ to benchmark the disk, and the key metrics are:

  • 188MB/s sequential write
  • 86MB/s sequential read-write-flush
  • 2636 random seeks per second

Output

Below is the output for a test run on a benchmark cluster. We ran the benchmark several times to warm up the nodes, and this is just a single representative sample.

Note, that a single worker was running the benchmark. This means the "stale" test is not representative of total throughput, as the client was only routing to a single server.
