Media Server Efficiency

EvoStream Media Server: 400% More Efficient*

than the leading Java-Based Streaming Server

 

Media Server CPU Comparison
  • Serves 500 more clients with 1/3 of the CPU
  • Serve up to 30,000 clients on this i5 Desktop
Media Server Memory Comparison
  • Linear Memory Growth with over 1/3 the usage
  • Reduces video packet-loss with server-side buffering
  • Disable buffering to maintain extremely low memory usage

 

Media Server Memory Comparison
  • Faster acceptance of connections
  • Accepts all 5000 connections despite saturated network
  • Tested by connecting 500 RTMP clients every 2 minutes
Media Server Memory Comparison
  • Quickly accepts connections and saturates the network card
  • The Other server fails under heavy load and shuts down

 

What was the Test Environment?

  • Ubuntu 12 64-bit Operating System
  • IBM Desktop Clone
  • Intel Core i5-2320 CPU – 4 Cores at 3.00 GHz
  • 8.00 GB Installed RAM
  • 1 Gbit/sec Ethernet card

How was the Test Performed?

  • Starting with a single live RTSP source stream with no active clients
  • Every 120 seconds (2 minutes), connect 500 new RTMP clients
  • After 5,000 active connections, remove 500 RTMP clients every 120 seconds
  • Test is over when connection count is back to 0

How were the Measurements Taken?

  • CPU Utilization measured via the Top Linux utility
  • Memory usage measured via the Top Linux utility
  • Network Traffic measured via the SAR Linux utility

 

*The results of the efficiency test show the EvoStream Media Server is capable of handling 4 times the number of clients as compared to the competition.
