This subproject contains some microbenchmarks excercising key parts of Akka. (Excluding typed which has its own jmh module)

You can run them like:

sbt shell
akka > project akka-bench-jmh
sbt:akka-bench-jmh> jmh:run -i 3 -wi 3 -f 1 .*ActorCreationBenchmark

or execute in one-line command

sbt akka-bench-jmh/jmh:run -i 3 -wi 3 -f 1 .*ActorCreationBenchmark

Use 'jmh:run -h' to get an overview of the available options.

Some potentially out of date resources for writing JMH benchmarks:

• Studying what's wrong with JMH benchmarks
• Writing good benchmarks
