clickhouse-benchmark
Connects to a ClickHouse server and repeatedly sends specified queries.
Syntax:
$ echo "single query" | clickhouse-benchmark [keys]
or
$ clickhouse-benchmark [keys] <<< "single query"
If you want to send a set of queries, create a text file and place each query on the individual string in this file. For example:
SELECT * FROM system.numbers LIMIT 10000000
SELECT 1
Then pass this file to a standard input of clickhouse-benchmark
.
clickhouse-benchmark [keys] < queries_file
Keys
-c N
,--concurrency=N
— Number of queries thatclickhouse-benchmark
sends simultaneously. Default value: 1.-d N
,--delay=N
— Interval in seconds between intermediate reports (set 0 to disable reports). Default value: 1.-h WORD
,--host=WORD
— Server host. Default value:localhost
. For the comparison mode you can use multiple-h
keys.-p N
,--port=N
— Server port. Default value: 9000. For the comparison mode you can use multiple-p
keys.-i N
,--iterations=N
— Total number of queries. Default value: 0.-r
,--randomize
— Random order of queries execution if there is more then one input query.-s
,--secure
— Using TLS connection.-t N
,--timelimit=N
— Time limit in seconds.clickhouse-benchmark
stops sending queries when the specified time limit is reached. Default value: 0 (time limit disabled).--confidence=N
— Level of confidence for T-test. Possible values: 0 (80%), 1 (90%), 2 (95%), 3 (98%), 4 (99%), 5 (99.5%). Default value: 5. In the comparison modeclickhouse-benchmark
performs the Independent two-sample Student's t-test test to determine whether the two distributions aren't different with the selected level of confidence.--cumulative
— Printing cumulative data instead of data per interval.--database=DATABASE_NAME
— ClickHouse database name. Default value:default
.--json=FILEPATH
— JSON output. When the key is set,clickhouse-benchmark
outputs a report to the specified JSON-file.--user=USERNAME
— ClickHouse user name. Default value:default
.--password=PSWD
— ClickHouse user password. Default value: empty string.--stacktrace
— Stack traces output. When the key is set,clickhouse-bencmark
outputs stack traces of exceptions.--stage=WORD
— Query processing stage at server. ClickHouse stops query processing and returns answer toclickhouse-benchmark
at the specified stage. Possible values:complete
,fetch_columns
,with_mergeable_state
. Default value:complete
.--help
— Shows the help message.
If you want to apply some settings for queries, pass them as a key --<session setting name>= SETTING_VALUE
. For example, --max_memory_usage=1048576
.
Output
By default, clickhouse-benchmark
reports for each --delay
interval.

In the report you can find:
-
Number of queries in the
Queries executed:
field. -
Status string containing (in order):
- Endpoint of ClickHouse server.
- Number of processed queries.
- QPS: QPS: How many queries server performed per second during a period specified in the
--delay
argument. - RPS: How many rows server read per second during a period specified in the
--delay
argument. - MiB/s: How many mebibytes server read per second during a period specified in the
--delay
argument. - result RPS: How many rows placed by server to the result of a query per second during a period specified in the
--delay
argument. - result MiB/s. How many mebibytes placed by server to the result of a query per second during a period specified in the
--delay
argument.
-
Percentiles of queries execution time.
Comparison mode
clickhouse-benchmark
can compare performances for two running ClickHouse servers.
To use the comparison mode, specify endpoints of both servers by two pairs of --host
, --port
keys. Keys matched together by position in arguments list, the first --host
is matched with the first --port
and so on. clickhouse-benchmark
establishes connections to both servers, then sends queries. Each query addressed to a randomly selected server. The results are shown for each server separately.
Example
$ echo "SELECT * FROM system.numbers LIMIT 10000000 OFFSET 10000000" | clickhouse-benchmark -i 10
