Motivation: It is often helpful to measure the performance of connections, e.g. the latency and the throughput. This can be performed through benchmarks. Modification: This adds a simple but configurable benchmark for websockets into the example directory. The Netty WebSocket server will echo all received websocket frames and will provide an HTML/JS page which serves as the client for the benchmark. The benchmark also provides a verification mode that verifies the sent against the received data. This can be used for the verification ob websocket frame encoding and decoding funtionality. Result: A benchmark is added in form a further Netty websocket example. With this benchmark it is easily possible to measure the performance between Netty and a browser |

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>
. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
