<PRE>A comparison (summary) of cowboy 0.6.1 and misultin 0.9 final in the context of CloudI is here:
<A HREF="https://github.com/okeuday/CloudI/blob/master/src/tests/http_req/loadtest/results_v1_1_0/201210_summary.pdf">https://github.com/okeuday/CloudI/blob/master/src/tests/http_req/loadtest/results_v1_1_0/201210_summary.pdf</A>
(the raw Tsung results are also within the same directory)
The results are just showing the latency when putting cowboy and misultin under 10kreq/s load with both 20k and 40k connections, when the requests go through CloudI messaging into all the supported programming languages (Erlang, C/C++, pure-Java, Python/C, pure-Python, and pure-Ruby.... the "pure" part is where only the target language is used to create the CloudI API, which does the Erlang binary term format CloudI request encoding/decoding). So, the test is showing the performance of a simple HTTP GET query parameter parse/response using XML (the XML is based on historical misultin testing).
For these tests, it showed cowboy always has less latency which is significant, if the programming language internal latency is not significant. The cpu usage of cowboy was slightly lower than misultin for high connection counts (40k instead of 20k). The memory usage of cowboy was significantly lower than misultin. The test results are for R15B01 and R15B02, just due to when I did the loadtesting.
I will continue to do similar loadtests in the future to make sure and evaluate performance with more recent Erlang releases, as time allows, but the Tsung configurations are within the repository for people to test their own (hardware) environments.
