Maximum Load. The point just before AstLinux crashes. In this scenario we have lost console use. This test made 2500 calls at the max rate (discovered by trial and error) and took aproximately 900 seconds to complete. The log file can be downloaded here. Import this into your favourite spredsheet as a CSV file.
30 concurrent calls with
5 calls per second call rate. 10000ms (10s) call duration.
This screen better
identifies what's going on. Note the culumative value is averaging
2.8 calls per second. this is because we are waiting for calls to end
before we can place any further calls.
Predictably, the
response time to the requests increase with load.
Operable Load. The point at which the most concurrent calls and calls per second can be manages whilst still affording proper use of the console. This test made 2500 calls at the max operable rate (discovered by trial and error). The log file can be downloaded here. Import this file into your favourite spreadsheet package as a CSV file.
Call rate may increase as concurrent call volume decreases.
Despite a faster calls per second setting the average CPS drops to
1.5CPS due to there only being 16 concurrent calls in progress.
Predictably, with less load the response time to requests increases
slightly.
