spatial_index_benchmark

Simple non-academic performance comparison of available open source implementations of R-tree spatial index using linear, *quadratic and R-star balancing algorithms as well as bulk loading (Sort-Tile-Recurse or combined methods).

List of currently measured libraries:

More libraries have been suggested, see the GitHub Issues.

Build Status

Requirements

  • C++11 compiler
  • CMake
  • Boost headers current SVN trunk which includes required internal utilities:
    • boost/geometry/index/detail/rtree/utilities/statistics.hpp - added in r84649
    • boost/geometry/index/detail/rtree/pack_create.hpp - added in r84720
  • libspatialindex headers and libraries (for Windows, use OSGeo4W.

Results

First prototype, API usage and parameters matched as much as I could, hopefully without major bugs.

TODO: explain details

Complete set of result logs in results directory.

Visual C++ 11.0 (32-bit build)

HW: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2687W 0 @ 3.10GHz, 16 GB RAM; OS: Windows 7 64-bit SW: Visual Studio 2012

  • Loading times for each of the R-tree construction methods

load libspatialindex

load boost::geometry

  • Query times for each of the R-tree construction methods

query libspatialindex

query boost::geometry

Legend

  • bgi - boost::geometry::index (_rt is dynamic variant: L,Q,R etc. parameters specified at run-time)

  • lsi - libspatialindex

  • ct - Boost.Geometry-only, compile-time specification of rtree parameters

  • rt (or non suffix) - Boost.Geometry-only, run-time specification of rtree parameters

  • L - linear

  • Q - quadratic

  • R - rstar

  • itr (or no suffix) - iterative insertion method of building rtree

  • blk - bulk loading method of building R-tree (Split-Tile-Recurse for lsi, custom algorithm for bgi)

  • insert 1000000 - number of objects small random boxes

  • query 100000 - number of instersection-based queries with random boxes 10x larger than those inserted

  • stats generated using lsi's API and purposely written visitor for Boost.Geometry (not yet in Boost trunk)

Disclaimer

This project is driven by curiosity and for my own purposes, with hope to obtain useful and interesting results, for myself and others too. I do not have any objective of making ultimate performance shootout. This is not a rocket science, but a simple set of C++ programs, with likelyhood of bugs or inconsistencies. Found any, please report. Comments and improvements are always welcome!
