|
||
Package ants implements a fixed goroutine pool for managing and recycling a massive number of goroutines, allowing developers to limit the number of goroutines that created by your concurrent programs.
|
||
|
||
## Features:
|
||
|
||
- Automatically managing and recycling a massive number of goroutines.
|
||
- Friendly interfaces: submitting tasks, getting the number of running goroutines, readjusting capacity of pool dynamically, closing pool.
|
||
- Efficient in memory usage and it even achieves higher performance than unlimited goroutines in golang.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## How to install
|
||
|
||
``` sh
|
||
go get -u github.com/panjf2000/ants
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Or, using glide:
|
||
|
||
``` sh
|
||
glide get github.com/panjf2000/ants
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How to use
|
||
If your program will generate a massive number of goroutines and you don't want them to consume a vast amount of memory, with ants, all you need to do is to import ants package and submit all your tasks to the default limited pool created when ants was imported:
|
||
|
||
``` go
|
||
|
||
package main
|
||
|
||
import (
|
||
"fmt"
|
||
"sync"
|
||
"sync/atomic"
|
||
|
||
"github.com/panjf2000/ants"
|
||
"time"
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
var sum int32
|
||
|
||
func myFunc(i interface{}) error {
|
||
n := i.(int)
|
||
atomic.AddInt32(&sum, int32(n))
|
||
fmt.Printf("run with %d\n", n)
|
||
return nil
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
func demoFunc() error {
|
||
time.Sleep(10 * time.Millisecond)
|
||
fmt.Println("Hello World!")
|
||
return nil
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
func main() {
|
||
runTimes := 1000
|
||
|
||
// use the common pool
|
||
var wg sync.WaitGroup
|
||
for i := 0; i < runTimes; i++ {
|
||
wg.Add(1)
|
||
ants.Submit(func() error {
|
||
demoFunc()
|
||
wg.Done()
|
||
return nil
|
||
})
|
||
}
|
||
wg.Wait()
|
||
fmt.Printf("running goroutines: %d\n", ants.Running())
|
||
fmt.Printf("finish all tasks.\n")
|
||
|
||
// use the pool with a function
|
||
// set 10 the size of goroutine pool
|
||
p, _ := ants.NewPoolWithFunc(10, func(i interface{}) error {
|
||
myFunc(i)
|
||
wg.Done()
|
||
return nil
|
||
})
|
||
// submit tasks
|
||
for i := 0; i < runTimes; i++ {
|
||
wg.Add(1)
|
||
p.Serve(i)
|
||
}
|
||
wg.Wait()
|
||
fmt.Printf("running goroutines: %d\n", p.Running())
|
||
fmt.Printf("finish all tasks, result is %d\n", sum)
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Submit tasks
|
||
Tasks can be submitted by calling `ants.Submit(func())`
|
||
```go
|
||
ants.Submit(func() {})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Custom limited pool
|
||
Ants also supports custom limited pool. You can use the `NewPool` method to create a pool with the given capacity, as following:
|
||
|
||
``` go
|
||
// set 10000 the size of goroutine pool
|
||
p, _ := ants.NewPool(10000)
|
||
// submit a task
|
||
p.Submit(func() {})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Readjusting pool capacity
|
||
You can change ants pool capacity at any time with `ReSize(int)`:
|
||
|
||
``` go
|
||
pool.ReSize(1000) // Readjust its capacity to 1000
|
||
pool.ReSize(100000) // Readjust its capacity to 100000
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Don't worry about the synchronous problems in this case, this method is thread-safe.
|
||
|
||
## About sequence
|
||
All the tasks submitted to ants pool will not be guaranteed to be processed in order, because those tasks distribute among a series of concurrent workers, thus those tasks are processed concurrently.
|
||
|
||
## Benchmarks
|
||
<div align="center"><img src="ants_benchmarks.png"/></div>
|
||
|
||
In that benchmark-picture, the first and second benchmarks performed test with 100w tasks and the rest of benchmarks performed test with 1000w tasks, both unlimited goroutines and ants pool, and the capacity of this ants goroutine-pool was limited to 5w.
|
||
|
||
- BenchmarkGoroutine-4 represent the benchmarks with unlimited goroutines in golang.
|
||
|
||
- BenchmarkPoolGroutine-4 represent the benchmarks with a ants pool.
|
||
|
||
The test data above is a basic benchmark and the more detailed benchmarks will be uploaded later.
|
||
|
||
### Benchmarks with Pool
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
In that benchmark-picture, the first and second benchmarks performed test with 100w tasks and the rest of benchmarks performed test with 1000w tasks, both unlimited goroutines and ants pool, and the capacity of this ants goroutine-pool was limited to 5w.
|
||
|
||
**As you can see, `ants` can up to 2x faster than goroutines without pool (1000w tasks) and it only consumes half memory comparing with goroutines without pool. (both 100w and 1000w tasks)**
|
||
|
||
### Benchmarks with PoolWithFunc
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Throughput ( situation for only submitting tasks and need not waiting for all the tasks to be completed)
|
||
|
||
#### 10w tasks
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 100w tasks
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 1000W tasks
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
There was only the test of `ants` Pool because my computer was crash when it reached 1000w goroutines.
|
||
|
||
**As you can see, `ants` can up to 2x~6x faster than goroutines without pool and the memory consumption is reduced by 10 to 20 times.**
