To be able to run WebSocket performance tests, we have to make sure run-perf-tests start the pywebsocket server before it runs any tests, as new-run-webkit-tests does. HTTP tests may be a nice-to-have, too. Ryosuke and Dirk: Do you think adding WebSocket performance tests is a good idea? How about HTTP tests? I think you guys have better sense than me.

Does the WebSocket performance matter? i.e. are they worth spending bots' time on? Since each new test we add will lengthen the cycle time of bots, I'd rather not add new tests unless they're useful (i.e. you're going to use them to improve performance, etc...)

Since each new test we add will lengthen the cycle time of bots, I'd rather not add new tests unless they're useful (i.e. you're going to use them to improve performance, etc...) I am designing a test to track the time of sending data through websocket, if the performance has been promoted, it will decrease the waiting time of ui, currently, the executing time of sending in firefox11.0 is shorter than chromium17, when the data size reaches 1MB.

The send api can block the web ui, if it takes too much time, it can't be tolerated by web developer, and from my test, Firefox11 had a better performance than chromium when the sending data size reached 1MB. In addition, chromium19 had a lower efficiency than chromium17, chromium17 was about 1.3 times faster than chromium19. So, I think it's necessary to add this test case, and running this case takes only 1 second in my developing machine, which will not increase the burden of Performance Tests.

You can hide it (e.g. by display = 'none' or removing it from the document) when it's ran properly (i.e. when it's hosted on localhost). > PerformanceTests/WebSocket/sendData.html:29 > + PerfTestRunner.run(startFunc, 10, 5, completeFunc); > + }; > + > + function startFunc() { > + wsocket.send(data); > + } > + > + function completeFunc() { > + wsocket.close(); > + } Since startFunc and completeFunc are only called by run, it's better to write it as: PerfTestRunner.run(function () { wsocket.send(data); }, 10, 5, function () { wsocket.close(); }); By the way, could lower the number of function calls per iteration and increase the number of runs instead? Taking just 5 samples isn't enough to compute min/max/stdev.

It is not very very hot spot compared with bulk data in JS parsing. So mark it to be WONTFIX. My apology for wasting reviewers' time.
