[zeromq-dev] TCP zeromq performance review

Hi Chuck and Pieter

I ran the ZMQ perf tests and also made changes to my own tests. Here's the outputs. My numbers match the perf tests. 

Doesn't it seem a little too slow, 40 us for one way tcp message?
 
ZMQ Latency Test:
---------------------------

./remote_lat tcp://10.34.253.10:20000 10 10000
message size: 10 [B]
roundtrip count: 10000
average latency: 43.045 [us]


ZMQ Throughput Tests
----------------------------------

./local_thr tcp://eth0:20000 10 1000000

Total time: 308 [ms]
message size: 10 [B]
message count: 1000000
mean throughput: 3244646 [msg/s]
mean throughput: 259.572 [Mb/s]

My Throughput Test: 
------------------------------

 Transport:                     ZMQ

 Messages recd:      1000000
 Total Time:                    721174 us   
 Throughput:                    166.395 Mbps 
 Avg per msg:                   0.721174 us                                                            

My Latency Test:
-------------------------

 Transport:                     ZMQ

 Messages sent:            10000
 Average / message:        40.2781 us   
 Max time:                      65 us   
 Min time:                      14 us

Try it again with the example program local_thr and remote_thr and see if the results match using the same inputs.

BTW, it looks reasonable to me. I have a similar machine (it's about 4 years old) and get around 55 usec latency as an average. Throughput is usually a bit higher especially for loopback.
