Add RAM usage

[sheosi]

First I want to say: thanks for your work, it's awesome and has guided me on choosing technologies.

Something I miss from the benchmarks is RAM usage. While this might not matter to everyone is still a good measure, specially when the number of threads explodes. It is also useful for when planning to run a service in a constrained device (like a Raspberry Pi)

Hi @sheosi ,

Thanks for those kind words. Having RAM usage is clearly a good indicator in this case.

This is something we have in the roadmap.

Unfortunately, I can provide any schedule for that (I'm the only one maintaing this project on a regular basis).

We actually use docker so maybe it is not a big deal.

The command bundle exec rake creates makefile with the collect target, maybe we can inject some docket stat command to gather some RAM/CPU info.

Any PR, or ideas, is gladly appreciated

Regard,

PS : This project is for the front, take a look at web-frameworks

Should I open this bug there then? Also, would you be open to guidance on doing this? I dont mind digging a little bit and it seems easy enough, but PHP and ruby aren't my area of expertise.

If you have time to get into it, opening a PR in web-frameworks repo is great.

But (and a huge but), we will migrate to the cloud (so avoid docker for official rounds), so RAM/CPU usage will be provided by clouder API (i'll make some toolset evolution).

What could be make, is to write a service (python, ruby or any language you want) that could be called every minutes and execute docker stats, and store results in a local database (slqite or else), so as you can make evolutions on UI to display this.

Beside, the ressources consumption (RAM/CPU even energy) is definitevly on the roadmap (but we can not provide any ETA)
