Replication Benchmarker
Functional Description: The Replication Benchmarker is a performance evaluation framework for optimistic replication mechanisms used in collaborative applications. It contains a library of implementation of several CRDT (Commutative Replicated Data Type) and OT (Operational Transformation) algorithms for different data types: text, set, trees. The framework is able to evaluate the performance of comparable algorithms on different corpus of events traces. These events traces can be produced randomly according to different parameters, can be extracted from real real-time editing session that have been recorded, or can be automatically extracted from distributed version control repositories such as the one produced with Git. Performances of the algorithms are measured in term of execution time, memory footprint and merge result quality (compared to manual merge history stored in git repositories).
