Couchbase (SDK 2.x) Driver for YCSB

This driver is a binding for the YCSB facilities to operate against a Couchbase Server cluster. It uses the official Couchbase Java SDK (version 2.x) and provides a rich set of configuration options, including support for the N1QL query language.

Quickstart

1. Start Couchbase Server

You need to start a single node or a cluster to point the client at. Please see http://couchbase.com for more details and instructions.

2. Set up YCSB

You can either download the release zip and run it, or just clone from master.

git clone git://github.com/brianfrankcooper/YCSB.git
cd YCSB
mvn clean package

3. Run the Workload

Before you can actually run the workload, you need to "load" the data first.

bin/ycsb load couchbase2 -s -P workloads/workloada

Then, you can run the workload:

bin/ycsb run couchbase2 -s -P workloads/workloada

Please see the general instructions in the doc folder if you are not sure how it all works. You can apply a property (as seen in the next section) like this:

bin/ycsb run couchbase -s -P workloads/workloada -p couchbase.epoll=true

N1QL Index Setup

In general, every time N1QL is used (either implicitly through using workloade or through setting kv=false) some kind of index must be present to make it work. Depending on the workload and data size, choosing the right index is crucial at runtime in order to get the best performance. If in doubt, please ask at the forums or get in touch with our team at Couchbase.

For workloade and the default readallfields=true we recommend creating the following index, and if using Couchbase Server 4.5 or later with the "Memory Optimized Index" setting on the bucket.

CREATE PRIMARY INDEX ON `bucketname`;

Couchbase Server prior to 4.5 may need a slightly different index to deliver the best performance. In those releases additional covering information may be added to the index with this form.

-CREATE INDEX wle_idx ON `bucketname`(meta().id);

For other workloads, different index setups might be even more performant.

Performance Considerations

As it is with any benchmark, there are lot of knobs to tune in order to get great or (if you are reading this and trying to write a competitor benchmark ;-)) bad performance.

The first setting you should consider, if you are running on Linux 64bit is setting -p couchbase.epoll=true. This will then turn on the Epoll IO mechanisms in the underlying Netty library which provides better performance since it has less synchronization to do than the NIO default. This only works on Linux, but you are benchmarking on the OS you are deploying to, right?

The second option, boost, sounds more magic than it actually is. By default this benchmark trades CPU for throughput, but this can be disabled by setting -p couchbase.boost=0. This defaults to 3, and 3 is the number of event loops run in the IO layer. 3 is a reasonable default but you should set it to the number of physical cores you have available on the machine if you only plan to run one YCSB instance. Make sure (using profiling) to max out your cores, but don't overdo it.

Sync vs Async

By default, since YCSB is sync the code will always wait for the operation to complete. In some cases it can be useful to just "drive load" and disable the waiting. Note that when the "-p couchbase.syncMutationResponse=false" option is used, the measured results by YCSB can basically be thrown away. Still helpful sometimes during load phases to speed them up :)

Debugging Latency

The Couchbase Java SDK has the ability to collect and dump different kinds of metrics which allow you to analyze performance during benchmarking and production. By default this option is disabled in the benchmark, but by setting couchbase.networkMetricsInterval and/or couchbase.runtimeMetricsInterval to something greater than 0 it will output the information as JSON into the configured logger. The number provides is the interval in seconds. If you are unsure what interval to pick, start with 10 or 30 seconds, depending on your runtime length.

This is how such logs look like:

INFO: {"heap.used":{"init":268435456,"used":36500912,"committed":232259584,"max":3817865216},"gc.ps marksweep.collectionTime":0,"gc.ps scavenge.collectionTime":54,"gc.ps scavenge.collectionCount":17,"thread.count":26,"offHeap.used":{"init":2555904,"used":30865944,"committed":31719424,"max":-1},"gc.ps marksweep.collectionCount":0,"heap.pendingFinalize":0,"thread.peakCount":26,"event":{"name":"RuntimeMetrics","type":"METRIC"},"thread.startedCount":28}
INFO: {"localhost/127.0.0.1:11210":{"BINARY":{"ReplaceRequest":{"SUCCESS":{"metrics":{"percentiles":{"50.0":102,"90.0":136,"95.0":155,"99.0":244,"99.9":428},"min":55,"max":1564,"count":35787,"timeUnit":"MICROSECONDS"}}},"GetRequest":{"SUCCESS":{"metrics":{"percentiles":{"50.0":74,"90.0":98,"95.0":110,"99.0":158,"99.9":358},"min":34,"max":2310,"count":35604,"timeUnit":"MICROSECONDS"}}},"GetBucketConfigRequest":{"SUCCESS":{"metrics":{"percentiles":{"50.0":462,"90.0":462,"95.0":462,"99.0":462,"99.9":462},"min":460,"max":462,"count":1,"timeUnit":"MICROSECONDS"}}}}},"event":{"name":"NetworkLatencyMetrics","type":"METRIC"}}

It is recommended to either feed it into a program which can analyze and visualize JSON or just dump it into a JSON pretty printer and look at it manually. Since the output can be changed (only by changing the code at the moment), you can even configure to put those messages into another couchbase bucket and then analyze it through N1QL! You can learn more about this in general in the official docs.

Configuration Options

Since no setup is the same and the goal of YCSB is to deliver realistic benchmarks, here are some setups that you can tune. Note that if you need more flexibility (let's say a custom transcoder), you still need to extend this driver and implement the facilities on your own.

You can set the following properties (with the default settings applied):

  • couchbase.host=127.0.0.1: The hostname from one server.
  • couchbase.bucket=default: The bucket name to use.
  • couchbase.password=: The password of the bucket.
  • couchbase.syncMutationResponse=true: If mutations should wait for the response to complete.
  • couchbase.persistTo=0: Persistence durability requirement
  • couchbase.replicateTo=0: Replication durability requirement
  • couchbase.upsert=false: Use upsert instead of insert or replace.
  • couchbase.adhoc=false: If set to true, prepared statements are not used.
  • couchbase.kv=true: If set to false, mutation operations will also be performed through N1QL.
  • couchbase.maxParallelism=1: The server parallelism for all n1ql queries.
  • couchbase.kvEndpoints=1: The number of KV sockets to open per server.
  • couchbase.queryEndpoints=5: The number of N1QL Query sockets to open per server.
  • couchbase.epoll=false: If Epoll instead of NIO should be used (only available for linux.
  • couchbase.boost=3: If > 0 trades CPU for higher throughput. N is the number of event loops, ideally set to the number of physical cores. Setting higher than that will likely degrade performance.
  • couchbase.networkMetricsInterval=0: The interval in seconds when latency metrics will be logged.
  • couchbase.runtimeMetricsInterval=0: The interval in seconds when runtime metrics will be logged.
  • couchbase.documentExpiry=0: Document Expiry is the amount of time(second) until a document expires in Couchbase.
