💖 RENDER_SPEEDTEST(1) 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual for render_speedtest, and it's literally the general commands manual — like, the whole vibe is "you type a command, something happens, slay". Buckle up, we're benchmarking tiles today. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

render_speedtest — benchmark tile rendering with renderd. that's the whole assignment, no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

render_speedtest [options]

that's it. that's the whole thing. options go brrr. 💅

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So, real talk: this manual page documents render_speedtest briefly — that's the official word, it's a short one, we're not doing a whole dissertation here. 🫶

What it actually does? It renders a bunch of tiles at various zoom levels so you can benchmark how fast the rendering is going. It's giving "stress test but make it tiles". It's giving main character energy for your map server. ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

Okay so these programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax — you know the drill, long options start with two dashes (`-`). A summary of the options is included below, because of course it is. 💖

  • -s, --socket=SOCKET|HOSTNAME:PORT — tells it where the renderd socket lives, or gives it a hostname and port to connect to instead. pick your fighter. 🔥
  • -m, --map=MAP — which rendering style are we testing, bestie? the default is "default".
  • -n, --num-threads=N — how many parallel request threads you want. the default is 1, so if you want chaos you gotta ask for it. 💀
  • -z, --min-zoom=ZOOM — only render tiles greater than or equal to this zoom level. default is 0.
  • -Z, --max-zoom=ZOOM — only render tiles less than or equal to this zoom level. default is 20. (yes, capital -Z is a whole different flag than lowercase -z, they are NOT the same girl, do not confuse them 🙈)
  • -h, --help — prints out a help text for render_speedtest. the "help me help you" button.
  • -V, --version — prints out the version number for render_speedtest. capital V, iconic behavior. ⭐
