/usr/local/redis/bin/redis-benchmark --help Usage: redis-benchmark [-h ] [-p ] [-c ] [-n <requests]> [-k ] -h Server hostname (default 127.0.0.1) -p Server port (default 6379) -s Server socket (overrides host and port) -a Password for Redis Auth -c Number of parallel connections (default 50) -n Total number of requests (default 100000) -d Data size of SET/GET value in bytes (default 2) -dbnum SELECT the specified db number (default 0) -k 1=keep alive 0=reconnect (default 1) -r Use random keys for SET/GET/INCR, random values for SADD
Using this option the benchmark will expand the string __rand_int__ inside an argument with a 12 digits number in the specified range from 0 to keyspacelen-1. The substitution changes every time a command is executed. Default tests use this to hit random keys in the specified range. -P Pipeline requests. Default 1 (no pipeline). -q Quiet. Just show query/sec values --csv Output in CSV format -l Loop. Run the tests forever -t Only run the comma separated list of tests. The test names are the same as the ones produced as output. -I Idle mode. Just open N idle connections and wait.
Examples: Run the benchmark with the default configuration against 127.0.0.1:6379: $ redis-benchmark Use 20 parallel clients, for a total of 100k requests, against 192.168.1.1: $ redis-benchmark -h 192.168.1.1 -p 6379 -n 100000 -c 20 Fill 127.0.0.1:6379 with about 1 million keys only using the SET test: $ redis-benchmark -t set -n 1000000 -r 100000000 Benchmark 127.0.0.1:6379 for a few commands producing CSV output: $ redis-benchmark -t ping,set,get -n 100000 --csv Benchmark a specific command line: $ redis-benchmark -r 10000 -n 10000 eval 'return redis.call("ping")' 0 Fill a list with 10000 random elements: $ redis-benchmark -r 10000 -n 10000 lpush mylist __rand_int__ On user specified command lines __rand_int__ is replaced with a random integer with a range of values selected by the -r option.
