pohjavirta

Fast & Non-blocking Clojure wrapper for Undertow.

STATUS: Pre-alpha, in design and prototyping phase.

Latest version

Clojars Project

Usage

(require '[pohjavirta.server :as server])
(require '[jsonista.core :as j])

(defn handler [_]
  {:status 200
   :headers {"Content-Type" "application/json"}
   :body (j/write-value-as-bytes {:message "hello"})})

;; create and start the server
(-> #'handler server/create server/start)

By default, the server listens to localhost on port 8080. Trying with HTTPie:

~ http :8080
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 19
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2019 17:50:17 GMT
Server: pohjavirta

{
    "message": "hello"
}

Let's run some load with wrk:

~ wrk -t2 -c16 -d10s http://127.0.0.1:8080
Running 10s test @ http://127.0.0.1:8080
  2 threads and 16 connections
  Thread Stats   Avg      Stdev     Max   +/- Stdev
    Latency   106.47us   52.47us   3.20ms   98.73%
    Req/Sec    70.89k     2.49k   75.84k    79.21%
  1424471 requests in 10.10s, 199.70MB read
Requests/sec: 141036.08
Transfer/sec:     19.77MB

Async responses, using promesa:

(require '[promesa.core :as p])

(defn handler [_]
  (-> (a/promise {:message "async"})
      (a/then (fn [message]
                {:status 200,
                 :headers {"Content-Type" "application/json"}
                 :body (j/write-value-as-bytes message)}))))

We redefined the handler, so no need to restart the server:

~ http :8080
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 19
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2019 18:00:35 GMT
Server: pohjavirta

{
    "message": "async"
}

Performance is still good:

~ wrk -t2 -c16 -d10s http://127.0.0.1:8080
Running 10s test @ http://127.0.0.1:8080
  2 threads and 16 connections

    Req/Sec    70.41k     2.38k   78.25k    76.24%
  1414188 requests in 10.10s, 198.26MB read
