http://backendconf.ru/2016/abstracts/2137.html

Prepare your environment

1. make gendata - [re]generates test data.

2. make codegen - runs compile & code gen in one-time docker container.

3. make pyavroc - compile pyavroc library in one-time docker container.

4. make requirements - Install required python libraries via pip2 and pip3. Prepare your virtualenv before executing this.

5. make codegen_fb_thrift - Replace apache thrift with facebook thrift.

Run tests

./measure_size.py — outputs CSV with sizes of data types.

./measure.py — outputs CSV with serialization timings. Use --no-cython option to disable Cython in Thriftpy.
