如何增加龙卷风超时

Question

I'm trying tornado framework. But I found tornado frequently failed after 30 seconds in the stress test (using multi-mechanize). I use 10 threads in multi-mechanize and run for 100 seconds, around 500 requests / seconds. And it's around 15% failure ratio after 30 seconds. The whole test is about 100 seconds. From the statistics, I realize, the failure may due to timeout after 0.2 seconds. I searched for several ways to increase the timeout on web, but nothing works.

The below is my tornado code:

import tornado.ioloop
import tornado.web

class MainHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    @tornado.web.asynchronous
    def get(self):
        self.write("Hello, world")
        self.finish()

application = tornado.web.Application([
    (r"/", MainHandler),
])

if __name__ == "__main__":
    application.listen(8000)
    tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()

Here is my multi-mechanize test script:

import requests
import random
import time

class Transaction(object):
    def __init__(self):
        pass
    def run(self):
        r = requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:8000')
        output = r.raw.read()
        assert(r.status_code == 200)
        return output

if __name__ == '__main__':
    trans = Transaction()
    trans.run()
    print trans.custom_timers

The following is the error message I got from multimech-run

To answer your question of how to change the timeout for tornado, you need to modify tornado's bind_socket function to set the time out: http://www.tornadoweb.org/documentation/_modules/tornado/netutil.html

sock.setblocking(0)
sock.bind(sockaddr)
sock.listen(backlog)
sockets.append(sock)

Change the first line to sock.setblocking(1). According to the documentation: http://docs.python.org/library/socket.html#socket.socket.settimeout :

Setting a timeout of None disables timeouts on socket operations s.settimeout(None) is equivalent to s.setblocking(1).

However, as suggested in the comment, I think you should look at distributing the load.
