We have been working on developing a number of metric test programs to try and find the technical limitations and performance ability of BlueMesh. Hopefully, we'll be able to get some useful and important data concerning performance and limitations for developers.
Right now, the tests we're trying to create and the questions we have are:
- Fastest Bounce : How quickly can BlueMesh send a small message from device A to device B and back? How much does this time change with N intermediate devices?
- Largest Message: What's the largest message that can reliably be sent through BlueMesh? Does this result in a significant slowdown? What's the greatest data throughput we can achieve with BlueMesh, and what affects it?
I'm considering adding a "Proliferation" test, to see how quickly a message can be sent to a large number of devices, but due to a lack of testing devices, this will likely have to wait.
Fastest Bounce has already been written and is on the git's development branch. It has not yet been shown to work, nor has it been run for numbers. Since I need two phones at least to run a test, achieving this has been difficult, but should be accomplished soon.
