Performance Testing of Auto-Instrumentation for Java Applications

[denifilatoff]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

There are some feedbacks that auto-instrumentation may increase request latency and memory usage in Java applications. We need to conduct a series of tests to confirm or refute this claim by comparing the following configurations:

• AutoInstrumentation enabled – auto-instrumentation is fully activated.
• Library enabled – using a library with manual addition of the baggage attribute in code.
• All disabled – neither auto-instrumentation nor the library is used.

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Setting Up the Testing Environment:

   • Create a controlled and reproducible testing environment that closely mimics production conditions.
   • Ensure that the same load conditions are applied across all test scenarios.
   • Make guide and script for reproduce testing env

2. Implementing Tests:

   • Develop test scenarios for each of the three configurations.
   • Apply realistic load patterns to accurately measure the impact on performance.
   • Use existing tool to generate load if possible

3. Collecting Metrics:

   • Measure CPU usage, RAM consumption, and request latency.
   • Use reliable monitoring and logging tools to gather statistically significant data.

4. Analysis and Reporting:

   • Conduct a comparative analysis of the gathered metrics.
   • Prepare a detailed report with conclusions and recommendations for optimization.
   • Document all testing phases to facilitate replication and verification of results.
