Actix web Build Status Build status codecov crates.io

Actix web is a small, fast, down-to-earth, open source rust web framework.

use actix_web::*;

fn index(req: HttpRequest) -> String {
    format!("Hello {}!", &req.match_info()["name"])
}

fn main() {
    HttpServer::new(
        || Application::new()
            .resource("/{name}", |r| r.f(index)))
        .serve::<_, ()>("127.0.0.1:8080");
}

Documentation

Features

  • Supported HTTP/1.x and HTTP/2.0 protocols
  • Streaming and pipelining
  • Keep-alive and slow requests handling
  • WebSockets
  • Transparent content compression/decompression (br, gzip, deflate)
  • Configurable request routing
  • Multipart streams
  • Middlewares (Logger, Session, DefaultHeaders)
  • Built on top of Actix.

Benchmarks

This is totally unscientific and probably pretty useless. In real world business logic would dominate on performance side. But in any case. i took several web frameworks for rust and used theirs hello world example. All projects are compiled with --release parameter. I didnt test single thread performance for iron and rocket. As a testing tool i used wrk and following commands

wrk -t20 -c100 -d10s http://127.0.0.1:8080/

wrk -t20 -c100 -d10s http://127.0.0.1:8080/ -s ./pipeline.lua --latency -- / 128

I ran all tests on localhost on MacBook Pro late 2017. It has 4 cpu and 8 logical cpus. Each result is best of five runs. All measurements are req/sec.

Name 1 thread 1 pipeline 3 thread 3 pipeline 8 thread 8 pipeline
Actix 89.300 871.200 122.100 1.877.000 107.400 2.560.000
Gotham 61.000 178.000
Iron 94.500 78.000
Rocket 95.500 failed
Shio 71.800 317.800
tokio-minihttp 106.900 1.047.000

Some notes on results. Iron and Rocket got tested with 8 threads, which showed best results. Gothan and tokio-minihttp seem does not support multithreading, or at least i couldn't figured out. I manually enabled pipelining for Shio and Gotham*. While shio seems support multithreading, but it showed absolutly same results for any how number of threads (maybe macos problem?) Rocket completely failed in pipelined tests.
