Haproxy tuning for performance?

问题

We are trying to find the best tuning options for haproxy for get and post request that come from a client (not users browsing the web type of deal).

Running a jmeter test with 30k threads that consists of 5 calls to the servers, 1 user reg, and a few update calls. These push json data though the pipeline.

Here us our current config for haproxy

global
        log /dev/log local0 #notice
        maxconn 14000
        tune.bufsize 128000
        user netcom
        group netcom
        pidfile /tmp/haproxy.pid
        daemon
        nbproc 7
        #debug
        #quiet

defaults
        log global
        mode http
        ### Options ###
        option httplog
        #option logasap

        option httpchk GET /?method=echo HTTP/1.1
        option tcp-smart-accept
        option tcp-smart-connect
        option http-server-close
        #option httpclose
        #option forceclose
        ### load balance strategy ###
        balance leastconn
        #balance roundrobin
        ### Other ###
        retries 5
        maxconn 14000
        backlog 100000

        server n25 xxxx:8080 maxconn 3500 check port 8097 inter 2000

and our sysctl on centOS 6

net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_synack_retries = 2
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65535
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1
net.core.wmem_max = 12582912
net.core.rmem_max = 12582912
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 20480 174760 25165824
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 20480 174760 25165824
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_no_metrics_save = 1
net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 10000
# Syn flood
net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 8096
net.core.somaxconn = 8096

anyone point out any blaring issues that they can see off the top of your head. Unfortunately I do not have the expertise in haproxy so looking for help from the community.

What I also prob need to figure out is how to find the max connections the box can handle, its on 1 gig network and all the backends are on one gig as well. Here is screen shot from the haproxy admin http://grab.by/r12c, note we are running it with more than one core so this is a snapshot of the one core.. since the web admin as far as I can tell cant show everything.. any idea how to get the max conn that haproxy is getting from cmd line?

anyhow just working though this and hope that anyone can give some tips or pointers.

回答1:

Well the first thing is that it doesn't seem like you should be running multiple processes of haproxy. Typically you won't want to do that, especially because you are busy testing and trying to see the maxconn's. On a single core haproxy can way outperform the maxconn setting you have anyway.

I went through Snapt's sysctl's and you have most of the; I noticed it's also adding these --

    net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1
    net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout = 30

Also, leastconn is not going to be worthwhile I would suggest roundrobin. Because you are doing HTTP traffic which consists of many small requests (I guess that depends though to be honest). These are such minor things though.
