rime speedtest
Measure time-to-first-byte (TTFB) for configured environments. Sends a TTS request to each endpoint and reports latency.
Flags
| Flag | Short | Default | Description |
|---|
--model | -m | arcana | Model ID for the test request |
--runs | — | 1 | Number of requests per endpoint — reports mean/min/max when greater than 1 |
--timeout | — | 10s | Per-request timeout (0 disables timeout) |
--url | — | — | Additional URL to test, not in config (repeatable) |
--env | — | — | Only test these named environments from config (repeatable) |
--yes | -y | false | Automatically switch the default environment if a faster one is found |
Behavior
- No flags: tests all configured environments
--url alone: tests only the specified URLs (config envs are skipped)--env + --url: tests both the named envs and the extra URLs- When using
--url, your configured API credentials are forwarded to those URLs (a warning is printed)
- After the test completes, if the fastest environment differs from the current default, the CLI prompts you to switch. Use
--yes to skip the prompt and switch automatically.
Example output (single run)
ENV URL TTFB
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
users https://users.rime.ai/v1/rime-tts 245.12ms
users-east https://users-east.rime.ai/v1/rime-tts 189.40ms
Fastest: users-east (189.40ms)
Switch default environment from "users" to "users-east"? [y/N]:
Example output (--runs 3)
ENV URL TTFB (3 runs)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
users https://users.rime.ai/v1/rime-tts mean=245.12ms min=221.30ms max=271.50ms
users-east https://users-east.rime.ai/v1/rime-tts mean=189.40ms min=175.10ms max=203.80ms
Fastest: users-east (189.40ms)
Switch default environment from "users" to "users-east"? [y/N]:
--runs is greater than 1, the JSON output includes ttfb_min_ms and ttfb_max_ms fields in addition to ttfb_ms (mean).
