Gobench supports gRPC
What is news: Gobench is supporting gRPC, both unary RPC and streaming. Now you can use Gobench to benchmark servers with HTTP, MQTT, NATs, and gRPC.
See Gobench project at https://github.com/gobench-io/gobench
To test the gRPC benchmark, we will we will use the examples provided by grpc-go project.
git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go
cd grpc-go/examples
Unary gRPC
Run the greeter server:
go run helloworld/greeter_server/main.go
Then create a new Gobench scenario on this link. This
program generates 5 virtual users each sends helloworld.Greeter/SayHello RPC
in 2 minutes. The dashboard records the number of responses and the request
latency as depicted in the following picture.

gRPC stream
Run the route_guide streaming server:
go run route_guide/server/server.go
Then create a new Gobench scenario on this link. This
program generates 5 virtual users each sends
routeguide.RouteGuide/ListFeatures RPC in 2 minutes. The dashboard records
number of new streaming created, latency, the number of the streaming requests
sent (which will be equal to the number of new streaming created), the streaming
request latency, and the number of the total messages received in all streams
with their latency.
