Fastest Platform (softwarewise)?

Hi,

I am running on Apache on Linux. What is the fastest Software-Platform for
the Java-Part. At the moment I am using Apache-JServ with Linux-JDK 1.1.8.
I am currently not using a JIT. So should I use Tomcat/Another JDK/a JIT?

You may have to make your choice on which is the most stable for your platform.
To that end, I recommend the Blackdown JDK.

You should check the logs in WEB-INF/logs, which contain detailed
information about the cause of this error (search for stacktraces).

Note that the latest Cocoon 2 CVS displays the full reason on screen so
you don't have to search the logs.

plase give a stacktrace aswell as "The sitemap handler's sitemap is not
available" is to general.

if you have things like "x11" in the stacktrace it's the known batik&x11
problem with awt, read the FAQ at xml.apache.org/cocoon2, if the stacktrace
doesn't contain x11 then then read carefully the FAQ about setting up
Cocoon2 with tomcat3/4, and if that doesn't help, post the stacktrace :-)

OSX does just over AIX (but this is not really fair as OSX is running on 
a year old G4 whereas AIX is on a 10 year old J50). The J50 is mainly 
our database machine and it's far better at that than web serving.

A series of load tests showed the PIII delivered between 70-80% of the 
total requests delivered from OSX in the same time.

There are a couple of sites served by the test machines, static and 
dynamic with connections to an Object database and a SQL database. The 
tests were 'typical usage' tests with a script making requests for 
documents in a similar way the people using the site only much faster. :)

They included database searches, updates and deletes so that time was 
considered separately.

The script allows us to 'simulate' the number of users and our testing 
was with 50 concurrent users. I've found that 50 concurrent/simultaneous 
users equates to about 150-200 real users - which is well above what we 
are expecting.

Yeah, absolutely. Clock speed certainly has nothing to do with 
performance. I learnt that very quickly with an RS6000 - the 
architecture is so bloody good that it manages to get a heap more done 
than a Mac (same processor, memory, disc, etc). Certainly chip 
architecture, and even more importantly machine architecture, plays the 
biggest role in getting the job done. Lastly, software design can suck 
out any performance that the hardware can give you.

Run linux on a top model GenericPC or a top model Netfinity. All things 
being equal (cpu, memory, dics, etc) the Netfinity will outperform the 
Generic. Why? It's been built well. But run windows on them both... no 
perceivable difference. Why? Poorly written software will turn even the 
best hardware into a dog.

Regardless, it looks like I missed the point of the question in the 
first place, so I think i'll leave it here. :)

Thanks. Have fun,

Phil

That's interesting, I didn't think OSX would come out on top--maybe second
though.  As to AIX, and this goes for Solaris as well, they are very
expensive--so bang for the buck goes down.  How about raw performance
though?  Which comes out on top?

So for 10% more cost you gain 70-80% more speed.  That is a reasonable
tradeoff.  What kinds of tests did you run?  How does each one scale
(as you add more clients).  How many simultaneous connections can each
platform handle before you reach saturation?

Careful there.  Clockrate != performance.  When all things are equal
(i.e. chip architecture, design, etc.), then clockrate is effective
to determine relative performance increases.  However, the G4 and the
PIII have very different architectures.  This is true of the PIII and
the P4, and the P4 and the K7.  In that case 1.5GHz in all three
processors would have very different performance results.  As far as
I know, the G4 is not capable of the high clockrates, so it makes up
for it with an efficient pipeline.  The pentium series was designed
for high clockrates.

Re: Fastest Platform (softwarewise)?

Hi,

We run apache/tomcat/cocoon on 3 server platforms, Linux, AIX and MacOS 
X.

Linux on a dual PIII 550, OSX on a PPC-G4 450 and AIX on a 4x250MHz 
PPC-G3.

Bang for buck, a G4 running OSX wins hands down. However, believe it or 
not, the dual PIII comes in second (AIX don't come close... too 
expensive for real consideration and Windows is not a server operating 
system in practice, only in marketing).

The Dual PIII was about 10% more than the G4 (after adding SCSI) and 
about 70-80% the performance.

Although theory has it that a G4 500MHz has about the same performance 
as a PIII 1.5GHz (ie triple the performance), I've found that it's 
really more like double the performance, not triple.
