progbg

The Programmable Benchmarker and Graphing Tool

The problem: Identifying bottlenecks and problems within a system is essential when developing larger systems. Being able to quickly produce simple graphs helps see these bottlenecks more clearly as well as possibly see degenerative issues within a system. progbg is a simple framework that exposes a planning API to allow you to plan execution of your benchmarks through the registering of workloads and backends. Data produced by these classes are parsed to produce data that can be used by graphs and figures. progbg utilizes matplotlib for its graphing library.

Installation

progbg can be installed through pip

$ pip install progbg

Example

Take a look at a working example plan. Try running it with the command progbg plan.py -p 8080 and go to localhost:8080 to view the example graphs!

Viewing Graphs

Graphs are saved by default in the graphs directory of the current working directory.

By passing the argument -p PORT to progbg, this will expose figures and graphs to be viewed by your browser at http://localhost:PORT
