I though that the 900 TPS jPOS system developed by The Gladiators was a record, but I’m in conversations with a jPOS PEP developer and I was impressed by some of his comments:
I got a permission to quote some parts of our chat:
- We made performance tests using jPOS and it scaled very well.
We are inserting jPOS in an ATM system for [customer name removed]
- We hope in a few months we gonna have a large number of ATMs using it.
- We made tests and for a complete transaction with data base access, log generation, and state machine control we got 1.050 tps in a central system.
- The goal was to achieve 700 tps with a maximum time of 1,5 seconds.
We got 1050 with 0,5 response time for the complete transaction. Including the authorization.
We made the tests in three platforms:
- zOS + Websphere + DB2;
- Dell x86 + Linux + JBoss + Postgres;
- Sparc + Solaris + SjSAS + Oracle;
The configurations were big, but the best performance we reached in zOs and with Dell+Linux(Debian). Both were very close in the final result.
I’m happily impressed, and you?
