I tried to benchmark the new codeigniter now, but I got some strange values.
ab -c 100 -n 10000 http://localhost/codeigniter
Time taken for tests: 6.571 seconds
Failed requests: 0
Write errors: 0
Requests per second: 1521.75
Time per request: 0.657 msXAMPP 1.7.2(apache 2.2.13), PHP 5.3.1, Windows 7, CodeIgniter 2.0
Asus Laptop, Inter core i3, 2.26 Ghz, 3GB RAM
First time I said is correct, but CakePHP got 1300 requests per second, which is impossible.

What are you exactly testing here?
This same test, on an ‘out of the box CI 1.7.2’ with welcome controller gives me:

What command did you use?
I was reading this: http://paul-m-jones.com/archives/236 and this http://www.alrond.com/en/2007/jan/25/performance-test-of-6-leading-frameworks/ . Used same commands and got huge results.
check these results: http://static.alrond.com/results_ci.txt
What am I missing here?
OK my mistake, I must admin. I was testing http://localhost/codeigniter instead of http://localhost/codeigniter/index.php/welcome
Sorry !!!

The same as you:
ab -c 100 -n 10000 <a href="http://test.catwoman.mydomain.local/">http://test.catwoman.mydomain.local/</a>I have a default .htaccess for all my CI sites, which I dropped in. That might have slowed things down a bit, but made sure the URL above gave me the output of the welcome controller.

Yes, I get the data from Welcome/Index because is the default controller, but I think “ab” doesn’t know to look for index.php, only checks the directory.

I tried to recreate paul jones’ reference test:
ab -c 10 -t 60 <a href="http://test.catwoman.mydomain.local/helloworld.html">http://test.catwoman.mydomain.local/helloworld.html</a>Results:

I also tried to recreate it and I got better results than him.
