[mapguide-users] perfomance test

Sun Oct 29 17:40:09 EST 2006

Thank you for all your suggestions. This is my first test so :)

Yes, I also think that other factors have more influence.
I' ve used clock() on windows and I ran it in loop of 16.

I suppose I should take some much larger data set.

Thanks,
Haris

OK. All I was saying is that EnvelopeIntersects does not incur a
secondary geometry filter processing for each feature in the SDF
provider, which Intersects does. I would have expected a significant
difference between Intersects and EnvelopeIntersects for the SDF
provider. Also, EnvelopeIntersects is what MapGuide uses to render every
map.

About the FGF thing -- yes SDF has the luxury of not having to convert
geometry formats, so in the limit, it would be faster than a provider
that converts, but (in my opinion) there are many other factors which
have a much bigger impact on performance, than a simple geometry
conversion loop.

Also, another question... How do you do the timing? If you use the
Windows clock, it has a resolution of 16 milliseconds, which makes the
accuracy of the 0.031 sec measurement for SDF very doubtful to me,
unless you repeated the operation 100 times and then took the total time
and divided by 100, for example.

	Yes, I've  tried envelope but I wanted to try more complicated
query (to use primary and secondary filter in Oracle) and also couldn't
see huge difference on this small set.

	If I understood you correctly you mean sdf provider is not
loosing time in converting to FGF format ?
	I agree on that but that is format use in MG, so that is one +
for sdf :)

	Did you try an EnvelopeIntersects filter? That one is by far the
most common one, rather than Intersects.
	It is not surprising that SDF is fastest by far... The SDF
provider does not add any intelligence to the data and stores everything
in FGF format so you are basically getting back a pointer into database
memory when you ask for the geometry.

		Hi,

		After some discussion's here on this list I got
interested in comparing different data source and fdo providers.

		So, I have used an test application written as pure FDO
client.
		I have run test again sdf, shp , 10gr2 and xe, using
osgeo sdf, shp and king.oracle provider.
		Data used in test is Sheboygan_Parcels.sdf from MG
unittest data.

		Before I wrote the results I would like to make strong
point that this could be altogether false results, I don't know anything
about writing true fair tests.
		As my lawyer told me I should put in here : whatever is
written is not promise, could be wrong and ..... :)

		17565 features read in case 1,2, 6681 fetaures in 3,4
		results are in seconds

		Test case 1: No geometry filter, Fetch all attributes 

		SDF        0.937 

		SHP        8.531 
		10GR2    18.172
		XE            18.500

		Test case 2: No geometry filter, Fetch Geometry and
Identity

		SDF        0.031 

		SHP        0.109 
		10GR2    1.938
		XE           1.735

		Test Case 3:  Geometry Filter, Fetch all attributes

		SDF        0.390
		SHP        3.391
		10GR2     6.906
		XE            6.218

		Test Case 4:  Geometry Filter, Fetch Geometry and
Identity

		SDF        0.031
		SHP        0.140
		10GR2     0.891
		XE           0.797

		Geometry Filter was: SHPGEOM INTERSECTS
GeomFromText('POLYGON ((-87.72 44, -86 44, -86 42, -87.72 42, -87.72
44))')
		and for SDF and King.Oracle it returns same number of
features 6683 which is good
		shape provider returned : 6681 ?

		Original SDF file was copied to Oracle using that same
tool, I call it Fdo2Sdo.
		Oracle 10GR2 is running on my same desktop in virtual
machine and XE on localhost.

		My Remarks:
		SDF is really fast and highly optimized for this kind of
queries. Test Case 4 would be the most used case in real word app. and
differences there are smallest.
		I think if you add overhead of MG and other overheads
than influence would be even smaller.
		I think these tests are very unfavorable to Oracle.
		This test is run with very small data set (just 17565
polygons), I believe much larger data sets would be more preferable to
Oracle.
		I also couldn't run test with ordering or grouping
(sdf,shp don't support it). I run this test immediately after installing
Oracle, not using any spatial index optimization
		and also provider is not highly optimized as could be.
		Here I am comparing file system to database ( it is
little unusual ), It would make more sense to test against other db.

		I will make this tool freely available very soon, so you
will be able to run test by your self's, and also it would be nice to
test other data sources and providers.

		I hope that someone will find this tests useful.
		I will welcome every comment on this and if I made this
tests wrongly please do tell me.

		Haris
