Setup

1. Use the Vagrantfile to create your box.
2. Add the domains the benchmarks use to the box /etc/hosts file:
   • apache.maxmind
   • phplib.maxmind
   • phpext.maxmind
   • vanilla.maxmind
3. Run sudo /vagrant/provision.sh on the box.

Test

$ curl -H "X-Forwarded-For: your.source.ip.address.here" http://phplib.maxmind

Benchmark

We use Siege:

$ siege -H "X-Forwarded-For: your.source.ip.address.here" -c 50 -t 60s http://apache.maxmind

To test with and without the Composer autoloader, remove the require 'vendor/autoload.php'; line from the appropriate PHP files.

To test the GeoIP PHP extension, enable it and restart Apache:

$ sudo ln -sf /vagrant/geoip.ini /etc/php5/conf.d/10-geoip.ini
$ sudo service apache2 restart
