Message178212
As noted in issue #12498, asyncore.dispatcher_with_send only sends 512 bytes at a time: this is 1/3 of the Ethernet MTU, which reduces greatly the attainable bandwidth and increases the CPU usage.
Here's a patch bumping it to 8192 (and making it a class member so that derived classes can customize it if needed, although not documented).
Here's the result of a simplistic benchmark using asyncore.dispatcher_with_send to send data to a server:
Without patch:
"""
$ time ./python ~/test_asyncore.py localhost 4242
real 0m6.098s
user 0m4.472s
sys 0m1.436s
"""
With patch:
"""
$ time ./python ~/test_asyncore.py localhost 4242
real 0m0.937s
user 0m0.796s
sys 0m0.112s
"""
Of course, this is using the loopback interface, but it shows that the performance gain can non negligible. The test script is attached (use "netcat -l -p 4242" as server). |
