You can easily check if an algorithm is fast enough on your platform. This project has tests for all operations with (almost) all algorithms.
To run those tests, you must install the library with all dev dependencies. When done, just run the following command:
./vendor/bin/phpbench run --store
The previous command will test ALL algorithms and may take more than 7 hours.
We recommend you to run tests only for the algorithm(s) you want to use. Just run the following command:
./vendor/bin/phpbench run --group GROUP --store
The value of GROUP
should be one of the following values:
- All signature algorithms:
JWS
- All HMAC algorithms:
hmac

- Note 1: the
dir
algorithm is not tested as there is no key encryption or key decryption with this algorithm. - Note 2: tests consist in a full JWS/JWE creation and loading and sometimes using multiple key sizes.
- Note 3: for JWE creation and loading, each key encryption algorithm is tested with the following content encryption algorithms:
A128GCM
,A192GCM
andA256GCM
A128CBC-HS256
,A192CBC-HS384
andA256CBC-HS512
Test all HMAC algorithms:
./vendor/bin/phpbench run --group hmac --store
Test the RSA1_5 algorithm:
./vendor/bin/phpbench run --group RSA1_5 --store
The result of the following command will only give you partial result. For example:
PhpBench 0.13.0. Running benchmarks.
Using configuration file: phpbench.json
............
12 subjects, 12 iterations, 12,000 revs, 0 rejects
(best [mean mode] worst) = 31.275 [86.783 86.783] 31.275 (μs)
⅀T: 1,041.395μs μSD/r 0.000μs μRSD/r: 0.000%
Storing results ... OK
Run: 133c8a853cf321f0b7b63e4e60f819f9910e1285
The main information is that the best algorithm takes only 31.275 µs... but you may need more information.
Just run the following command:
./vendor/bin/phpbench report --report=simple --output=md --uuid=133c8a853cf321f0b7b63e4e60f819f9910e1285
*The value of the --uuid
option is given at the end of the previous command. You can also use latest
.
A report.md
file will be created. It contains a detailed report (Markdown format). Example:
