@jasnell @Trott I can't find a way to fix it. Any good suggestions?

[Trott]

Is something else running on port 12346 on your machine? If so, you can tell it to use a different port with the NODE_COMMON_PORT environment variable:

NODE_COMMON_PORT=8080 ./node-master benchmark/compare.js --old ./node-master --new ./node-master -- http2

Oops, I made a small-but-important error. In tests, it's NODE_COMMON_PORT but apparently in benchmarks, it's just PORT:

PORT=8080 ./node-master benchmark/compare.js --old ./node-master --new ./node-master -- http2

Note, that I haven't tested this but determined it from reading the code. Sorry if I'm wrong again!

It may not be port usage, I don't have any other programs using port 12346 on my machine, it could be a connection overload error.

It doesn't always happen, but the odds are good that it will.

@addaleax @BridgeAR Any good direction, maybe because the number of threads exceeds the number of connections?

[Trott]

If benchmarking is being throttled by the OS, I'm not sure I have a great suggestion, but maybe someone on @nodejs/benchmarking or @mscdex might have an idea.

[rickyes]

ping again @mscdex @nodejs/benchmarking
