# `wut` server
This is a simple HTTP(/2) server written in Rust,
made for one thing, and one thing only: securely echoing your public IP-address as fast as possible. It is made for the [`wut` cli tool](https://github.com/nixigaj/wut), and I use it for [ip.erix.dev:11313](http://ip.erix.dev:11313).
## Non-scientific comparison with Nginx
### Server
| CPU | RAM | Uplink |
|----------------------------|----------|----------|
| Single core AMD EPYC 7302P | 1 GB ECC | 1 Gbit/s |
### Client
| CPU | RAM | Uplink |
|----------------|-----------|------------|
| AMD Ryzen 5600 | 32 GB ECC | 250 Mbit/s |
The tool used for the benchmark is [wrk](https://github.com/wg/wrk). The bottleneck in this test will be the server CPU.
### Nginx
Nginx has all optimization options enabled, headers stripped with the [ngx_headers_more module](https://github.com/openresty/headers-more-nginx-module), and is compiled with static OpenSSL and LTO.
#### Config
```nginx
load_module modules/ngx_http_headers_more_filter_module.so;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
sendfile on;
server_tokens off;
more_clear_headers "Server";
more_clear_headers "X-Powered-By";
more_clear_headers "content-type";
http2 on;
ssl_protocols TLSv1.3;
ssl_early_data on;
ssl_certificate ;
ssl_certificate_key ;
server {
return 200 "$remote_addr";
listen []:443 ssl;
listen :443 ssl;
}
}
```
#### Benchmark
```
Running 10s test @ https://ip.erix.dev
6 threads and 1000 connections
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 28.07ms 10.63ms 520.46ms 86.30%
Req/Sec 4.36k 0.96k 6.54k 72.18%
257322 requests in 10.03s, 27.98MB read
Socket errors: connect 95, read 17, write 0, timeout 0
Requests/sec: 25650.31
Transfer/sec: 2.79MB
```
### `wut` server
#### Benchmark
```
Running 10s test @ https://ip.erix.dev:11313
6 threads and 1000 connections
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 45.00ms 50.48ms 279.57ms 78.59%
Req/Sec 6.41k 1.23k 8.65k 83.47%
382057 requests in 10.02s, 32.79MB read
Requests/sec: 38110.60
Transfer/sec: 3.27MB
```
That is about 49% more requests per second. Additionally, some socket errors were encountered with Nginx.
## Usage
```
Usage: wut-server [OPTIONS] --cert-path --key-path
Options:
-b, --bind Address to bind to, with optional port (can be provided multiple times) [default: 127.0.0.1:11313 [::1]:11313]
-c, --cert-path Certificate file path
-k, --key-path Key file path
-i, --log-interval Log interval in seconds [default: 60]
-2, --http2-only Use HTTP/2 only
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
```
## Planned features
- Automatic hot reload of certificates when files on disk change.
