关于servlet3.0中的异步servlet

 刚看了一下维基百科上的介绍,servlet3.0是2009年随着JavaEE6.0发布的:

到现在已经有六七年的时间了,在我第一次接触java的时候(2011年),servlet3.0就已经出现很久了,但是到现在,里边的一些东西还是没有能够好好地了解一下

最近在研究java的长连接,在了解jetty中的continuations机制的时候也重新了解了一下servlet3.0中的异步servlet机制,通过看几个博客,加上自己的一些测试,算是搞明白了一些,在这里记录一下:

在服务器的并发请求数量比较大的时候,会产生很多的servlet线程(这些servlet线程在servlet容器的线程池中维护),如果每个请求需要耗费的时间比较长(比如,执行了一些IO的处理等),在之前的非异步的servlet中,这些servlet线程将会阻塞,严重耗费服务器的资源.而在servlet3.0中首次出现的异步servlet,通过一个单独的新的线程来执行这些比较耗时的任务(也可以把这些任务放到一个自己维护的线程池里),servlet线程立即返回servlet容器的servlet池以便响应其他请求,这样,在降低了系统的资源消耗的同时,也会提升系统的吞吐量

下面是我自己做的一个模拟的操作(代码参考了importnew上的这篇文章:http://www.importnew.com/8864.html)

一个服务器端需要十秒才能返回的servlet,分别有同步的版本和异步的版本,通过JMeter做压力测试,配合jprofiler来分析服务器的资源消耗情况(主要是线程的创建和使用情况)来分析当服务器处理时间较长的时候,异步的servlet和同步的servlet对服务器性能的影响

 

同步的servlet:

异步的servlet:

"                + asyncContext.getRequest().isAsyncSupported());        longProcessing(milliseconds);        try {            PrintWriter out = asyncContext.getResponse().getWriter();            out.write("Processing done for " + milliseconds + " milliseconds!!");            out.flush();            out.close();        } catch (IOException e) {            e.printStackTrace();        }        asyncContext.complete();    }    private void longProcessing(int secs) {        // wait for given time before finishing        try {            Thread.sleep(secs);        } catch (InterruptedException e) {            e.printStackTrace();        }    }}

启动tomcat之后,我们jprofile连接到该tomcat

容器启动的时候,线程图是这样的,一共有大概十几个的线程:

在对异步的servlet做压力测试时,jvm中的线程数量并没有大量地上升,我们在处理异步的servlet的时候,自己维护了一个线程池,基本上增加的线程都是来自这个线程池,因为使用了异步的servlet,servlet请求会立即返回servlet池,所以,需要servlet容器分配的sevlet线程的数量基本上没有增加多少,系统消耗的线程的数量下降了,对资源的消耗也会下降

值得一提的是,异步的servlet并不会使客户端的访问速度加快,只是提升了服务器端的处理性能,减轻了服务器端的资源消耗,使得服务器端使用比较少的线程就能处理大量的连接,所以这个特性要在合适的场景下使用才可以

另外,异步的servlet的编程模型要比之前的servlet复杂许多,这也是在开发的时候需要注意的,jetty的continuations也提供了类似的功能,并且提供了简化的编程模型,在任何支持servlet3.0的容器里都可以运行(不是只能在jetty中运行),我们项目组开发的针对安卓客户端的消息推送服务器就使用到了jetty的这个机制,在之后的文章里总结一下
