About:
Benchi is a command-line benchmarking tool designed specifically for data pipelines. It allows developers to measure throughput and latency by running defined workflows against various data sources and sinks. The tool's main value is providing standardized metrics to compare performance across different pipeline implementations and infrastructure setups.

Key Features:

Pluggable architecture for data sources and sinks
Configurable workflow definitions for custom pipeline scenarios
Detailed metrics output including throughput and latency measurements
Support for multiple data processing backends

Use Cases:

Comparing performance of different message queue implementations
Benchmarking data ingestion pipelines under various load conditions
Validating infrastructure changes against established performance baselines

Alternatives:

Apache Bench – Generic HTTP load testing tool, not specialized for data pipelines
JMeter – More complex to configure for data pipeline scenarios, heavier resource footprint
