console VS nextest

tokio-console is a debugger for Rust async programs that use Tokio. To get started, add the console-subscriber crate to your project and add the following line which will initialise the subscriber and allow tokio-console to connect to it:

You could try https://github.com/tokio-rs/console to debug and profile what happens with tokio tasks in your program.

The tokio-console CLI is a fun one. The console-subscriber supports shipping to a console server running elsewhere, apparently. That gives you a window into what's happening now.

Tokio console maybe? https://github.com/tokio-rs/console

If I add "console_subscriber::init()" line as https://github.com/tokio-rs/console recommends, tracing_subscriber cannot be initialized.

I'm building an HTTP load tester called pdc! I have run out of obvious (to me at least) places to look for performance gains. I'm achieving around 45,000 requests per second, per core. Right now I'm using hyper with a separate tokio runtime (in current thread mode) running on each core. So far having runtime on each core/NUMA node has really helped with cache coherency. Any recommendations for profiling beyond tokio console or tokio metrics (Convenient timing amirite!)?

It was just an accident and has been fixed https://github.com/tokio-rs/console/issues/270.

P.S. Tokio [now also has Tokio Console](https://github.com/tokio-rs/console) allowing you to conveniently troubleshoot your tasks if they are causing issues :)

You can opt-in to async runtime such as tokio, and you can use tokio-rs/console for it's top-like metric

cargo-nextest describes itself as a “next-generation Rust test runner”. To install, you need to run cargo install cargo-nextest.

> On my work I make 1-15 commits a day. If I have to spend thought cycles on the commit message, that is time that goes from other productive endeavours.

I make roughly that many commits a day as well. If something's easy to understand I'll put in a simple commit message (e.g. [1]), but I do put in the effort for more complicated ones.

If you need fancier testing than what's built into Rust, cargo-nextest is becoming quite popular.

https://nexte.st/ is what is getting all the attention as a replacement test harness/framework these days.

I believe cargo-nextest supports running separate binaries concurrently.

Do you already use nextest or something else? That really leans into test parallelism and sounds like a perfect fit for how you structure the tests.

I built it for cargo-nextest, in service of a new feature where some tests can be marked as heavier than others.

IMO 100% worth checking out: https://nexte.st/

For me, most of my needs are covered with next-test(https://nexte.st/), not that I have ever used any of the things you mentioned 😅
