I'm testing Django asgi performance using two very simple views. I'm running gunicorn and uvicorn in such a manner:
gunicorn core.wsgi --workers=1 --threads=1 --access-logfile=- core.wsgi:application
uvicorn --workers 1 core.asgi:application
The views are as follows:
def simple_sync_view(request):
usernames = "Hello World"
return JsonResponse({'message': usernames})
async def simple_async_view(request):
usernames = "Hello World"
return JsonResponse({'message': usernames})
Project has no middlewares enabled.
When testing using : wrk -t10 -c100 -d10s http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/sync/
synchronous server is always several times faster:
10 threads and 100 connections
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 37.42ms 7.87ms 158.35ms 98.88%
Req/Sec 271.54 38.28 303.00 79.60%
26885 requests in 10.01s, 4.87MB read
Requests/sec: 2685.95
Transfer/sec: 498.40KB
comparing to uvicorn:
10 threads and 100 connections
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 115.38ms 37.55ms 245.49ms 53.91%
Req/Sec 88.65 41.14 200.00 74.63%
8638 requests in 10.02s, 1.40MB read
Requests/sec: 862.49
Transfer/sec: 143.19KB
regardless of type of view, sync or async. So I wonder, is the Django in asgi mode so slow or what ?
