Reaper Test
by levans, May 5, 2012, 12:32 AM
So, what was I testing?
Basically, I was testing a multi-user thinger called socket.io. I've been using it for a long time, it was used in The Vine, but have known about a major bug in it with reconnections that really prevents me from using it in production use. I just needed to kind of reacquaint myself with socket.io, so I put the small game of Reaper on it. I also wanted to see how stable it could be with lots of messages flying back and forth, which is the case in a bash fest such as a 5 minute reaper game.
Also, this was actually running on another computer than the main site, so it didn't cause any load issues on the main site. Note that classes were going on at the same time as this game. It was tested on an Amazon EC2 micro instance.
The results:
