I'm working on kdbus support for GLib ([1],[2]). I saw some questions
about kdbus performance, so I've prepared simple benchmark. Because
David already has posted some comparison results between kdbus and UDS,
I've decided to use my GLib port with native kdbus support (it should
be noted, that this port is not finished yet and there are still some
places for improvements, thus please do not treat these test results as
final).

To perform tests I've created two simple apps:

- server: http://fpaste.org/215157/
- client: http://fpaste.org/215156/

The first one (server) registers itself on the bus under well-known
name ("com.test.app") and waits for calls to its objects and methods.
The second one (client) makes calls and records periods of time between
moment of preparing of a call to the moment of receiving an answer. The
measurement is made by performing 20000 of calls and computing a sum of
duration of every call (for two different sizes of message payload:
1000 and 10000 bytes). The client program returns total time of
performed calls after successful execution. All tests have been run on
VirtualBox with ArchLinux and latest version of systemd and kdbus.

The test results are following:

+--------------+--------------------+--------------------+
| | Elapsed time | Elapsed time |
| Message size | GLIB WITH NATIVE | GLIB + DBUS-DAEMON |
| [bytes] | KDBUS SUPPORT* | |
+--------------+--------------------+--------------------+
| | 1) 2.874264 s | 1) 4.624631 s |
| 1000 | 2) 2.932835 s | 2) 4.669730 s |
| | 3) 2.899634 s | 3) 4.747275 s |
| | 4) 2.970106 s | 4) 4.725723 s |
+--------------+--------------------+--------------------+
| | 3) 3.182379 s | 3) 5.469663 s |
| 10000 | 3) 3.334170 s | 3) 5.520757 s |
| | 3) 3.353305 s | 3) 5.556374 s |
| | 3) 3.367732 s | 3) 5.597758 s |
+--------------+--------------------+--------------------+

*all tests performed without using memfd mechanism.

I hope it will be useful for someone :)
