PTA app benchmarks

While updating the hledger performance page, I did some testing of other apps. I think this is the first detailed multi-PTA-app performance test. Check out the results, and see if you can reproduce them!

[Updates:]

  • changed Ledger's and Tackler's balance reports to flat mode, like the other apps.
  • filled in some missing results
  • ranked by speed. (Who's at the top now ?)
  • charts!

Hi,

When testing tackler's performance, please use "flat" mode for balance and balance-group reports.

Tackler's default mode of balance report ("tree") is more complex than with other PTA tools. Using "tree"-mode for benchmarks is nonsensical.

With flat mode, performance of tackler is around 900k txn/s, depending on HW and account data.

The default configuration generated by new command has following explanation:

###
### Balance and Balance Group Reports
###
###   There are two different kind of Balance family reports:  flat and tree
###    - `tree` reports balance for an account and for all its children accounts
###    - `flat` reports balance only for an account
###
###   You can select between these with `type` option on `balance` and `balance-group`
balance       = { title = "Balance Report", type = "tree" }

There is more explanation here: Balance Report :: Tackler // Docs and Balance Report :: Tackler // Docs
