High-Performance Git Server for Large Communities
New open-source Git server handles 567 pushes per second on a single 8-core box
A team of developers has created an open-source Git server that can handle a high volume of concurrent pushes, making it suitable for large communities and high-traffic projects.
The server, called Aspen, uses Apache 2.0 and can process up to 567 pushes per second on a single 8-core machine with stock Git clients.
This is a significant improvement over traditional Git servers, which can be overwhelmed by a large number of concurrent pushes.
Aspen's high performance is achieved through optimized code and a focus on scalability, making it an attractive option for large communities and high-traffic projects.
The team behind Aspen has also created a shared canvas where every pixel represents a real Git push, allowing users to visualize the server's performance in real-time.
