ESDK Go Benchmark

Performance benchmark suite for the AWS Encryption SDK (ESDK) Go implementation.

Quick Start

# Run quick benchmark
go run . --config ../../config/test-scenarios.yaml --quick

# Run full benchmark
go run . --config ../../config/test-scenarios.yaml

Build

# Build release binary
go build -o esdk-benchmark .

# Run built binary
./esdk-benchmark --quick

Configuration

The benchmark uses YAML configuration files. See ../../config/test-scenarios.yaml for the full configuration format.

Quick Mode

Quick mode runs a subset of tests with reduced iterations:

• Only runs test types specified in quick_config.test_types
• Uses smaller data sizes from quick_config.data_sizes.small
• Fewer iterations: quick_config.iterations.measurement

Test Types

• throughput: Measures operations per second and latency
• memory: Measures peak memory usage during operations
• concurrency: Tests performance under concurrent load

Output

Results are saved to JSON format in ../../results/raw-data/go_results.json by default.
