====== KEMI Performances For v5.2.0 ======

The tests were using Kamailio v5.2.0 just before release (Nov 2018). The focus was on comparing native execution time for **request_route** versus its equivalent **ksr_request_route()** for REGISTER processing. Note that the tests were not focusing in getting the maximum capacity of processing for Kamailio, but to discover the difference in execution time between native configuration file and equivalent KEMI scripts.

===== Testing Ecosystem =====

These users have to be added to Kamailio subscriber table. To add them from the source code tree of Kamailio:

<code>

===== SIPP Testing Command =====

SIPP was run on the same system with Kamailio. The command is:

<code>
sipp 192.168.178.98 -sf REGISTER_client.xml -inf REGISTER_client.csv -trace_msg -trace_err -l 10000 -r 4000 -m 20000
</code>

===== Results =====

The following metrics are collected for each test:

  * cnt - number of SIP messages processed (counter)
  * sum - the sum of execution times for request_route or ksr_request_route() (microseconds)
  * min - the minimum execution time for request_route or ksr_request_route() (microseconds)
  * max - the maximum execution time for request_route or ksr_request_route() (microseconds)
  * avg - the average execution time for request_route or ksr_request_route() (microseconds)

The metrics are extracted from the log messages using the next awk script:

<code awk>
BEGIN {
        sum = 0
        avg = 0
        min = 1000000
        max = 0
        cnt = 0
}

/request-route executed/ {
        sum += $(NF-1)
        cnt += 1
        if(min > $(NF-1)) {
                min = $(NF-1)
        }
        if(max < $(NF-1)) {
                max = $(NF-1)
        }
}

END {
        print "cnt: ", cnt
        print "sum: ", sum
        print "min: ", min
        print "max: ", max
        if(cnt>0) {
                avg = sum/cnt
        }

===== Remarks =====

Mentioning it again, the target of the tests was not to measure the capacity of Kamailio processing, but how the execution time differs in more or less same conditions between native scripting configuration file and KEMI alternatives, so far being done for Lua and Python scripting.

Testing was done on the same system, running first the test with native configuration file and immediately after, the one for Lua or Python scripting.

It was observed that the execution of native scripting routing blocks and Lua scripting functions takes more or less same time. Sometimes is native scripting slightly faster, other times is Lua scripting slightly faster. The average (for both native and Lua scripts) is in the range of 60 to 80 microseconds ( 1 / 1 000 000 of a second) for processing the registration request. The minimum reflects more what it takes for the first REGISTER request without authorization header, which is quickly challenged with 401 response. The maximum reflect the processing of the REGISTER request with valid authorization header, which does a query to database to fetch the password as well as store/update the record in the location hash table (writing to database on timer - usrloc db_mode 2).

There are variable number of retransmissions, being the reason for having cnt higher than 60000, a matter of sipp being able to match the response with the request at this high pace of stress testing (4 000 registrations per second, with a limit of 10 000 transactions at the same time, stopping after 20 000 sent messages). Note that each registration is challenged for authentication, so it is resent with authorization header.

Comparing with the state of KEMI exports for version 5.1.x, in the v5.2.x were introduced some functions to be the equivalent of some conditions done with core keywords.

For example, in the native scripting:

<code c>
if(uri == myself)
</code>

can be done in a KEMI scripting language with:

<code lua>
if KSR.is_myself_ruri() then
</code>

Tests for Python (using app_python module) were done couple of days later (the Debian Testing system was upgraded to latest version of packages). It was a pleasant surprise to see that the execution times were in the same range as for native and Lua routing scripts.

The plan is to as run Lua tests using LuaJIT interpreter instead of the standard Lua (support for LuaJIT was also added for v5.2.x) as well as test for other KEMI itnerpreters (JavaScript, Ruby, Squirrel...).
