Deploying httpress on the Client

When testing performance, use the httpress tool on the client to perform a pressure test, and enable KAE and use the Nginx service on the server to facilitate the test.

You can use either a physical machine or a VM as the client, which is flexible. When the CPU usage on the server reaches 100%, the RPS metrics generated by the httpress tool are used to measure the improved performance provided by KAE.

1. Install the dependencies.

   yum install -y gnutls-devel libev-devel openssl-devel

2. Download the httpress installation package to the /home directory of the VM. If the VM is connected to the Internet, run the wget command to download the httpress source code.

   cd /home
   wget https://github.com/yarosla/httpress/archive/1.1.0.tar.gz --no-check-certificate -O httpress-1.1.0.tar.gz

3. Decompress the httpress source package, go to the httpress directory generated after the decompression, and compile and install it.

   tar -zxvf httpress-1.1.0.tar.gz
   cd httpress-1.1.0
   make -j64

4. Configure httpress and check whether it is successfully installed.

   cp /home/httpress-1.1.0/bin/Release/httpress /usr/bin/
   httpress -v

   The installed httpress version is the target version.
