ros2-performance
A C++ framework for simulating and measuring ROS 2 system performance, tracking latency, reliability, CPU, and memory usage.
What is ros2-performance?
irobot-ros/ros2-performance is an open-source framework for evaluating the performance of ROS 2 systems. It simulates arbitrary ROS 2 topologies and measures key metrics like latency, reliability, CPU usage, and memory usage to help developers understand and optimize communication overhead. The framework is built in C++ with minimal dependencies, making it suitable for embedded and real-time robotic applications.
ROS 2 developers, roboticists, and embedded systems engineers who need to profile and optimize the communication performance of their ROS 2 applications, particularly for resource-constrained or real-time environments.
Developers choose this framework for its lightweight, dependency-minimal C++ core that is easy to cross-compile for embedded platforms, its flexible topology definition via JSON or CLI, and its focus on measuring ROS 2 communication overhead rather than application logic.
