This benchmark compares 5 major Feature Flag SDKs against Switcher Client SDK for Java.
The tests included in this benchmark are focused only in performance and does not reflect nor measure any other SDK capabilities.
The intent is to gain more knowledge and define a baseline to improve Switcher Client SDK overall performance.
Build jar and run the benchmark
mvn clean verify
java -jar target/benchmarks.jar
Uses in-memory cache by preloading or using async calls to remote service.
In-memory configuration loaded from file.
* Split SDK does not provide free access to fetch data from remote service - in this test the SDK is returning a default value.
These tests are 100% remote.

| FeatureFlagBenchmark.testSwitcherRemote | Remote | thrpt | 187.247 | ops/s |
- when Async, can be up to 6x faster than the other SDKs.
- when Local, can be up to 7x faster than the other SDKs.
- 100% remote can only be enabled with Switcher Client SDK.
