IceStorm throughput

[tvedt]

I rewrote the demo/IceStorm/clock example in Java to conduct some throughput tests. Running a single subscriber and a single publisher on dual 2.8 GHz atholon/xeon computers on a gigabit ethernet, the number of events received by the subscriber ranges from 5000 to over 17000 events per second. The average is roughly 6000 events/second. Do these results seem reasonable or consistent with what you would expect from IceStorm?

Thanks!

We will soon release a performance study for IceStorm, which will also compare IceStorm with a popular CORBA event service implementation. Let me suggest that you wait until this performance study is released, and then compare your own numbers with the numbers that we measured.
