Today we had a customer push the limits for a high measurement of requests per second in our performance testing tool. Their test hit a peak of nearly 1,800 requests per second! Wow, that pretty good.
We are still making some improvements to our our own system bottlenecks in AWS, but our team is obviously making some great progress. Yeah, I know. The irony is not lost on me. 
Performance tuning on the performance testing tool. Yep, even we need to do it. More so all the time because customers are finding LoadStorm to be a great fit for large scale tests at the lowest possible cost. Our normal target market is the small to medium companies that can’t afford the expensive enterprise tools. However, we are seeing more and more large enterprises buying very large volume subscriptions to conduct their load testing. Value, value value.
For more information about comparing LoadStorm to LoadRunner or how LoadRunner costs hundreds of thousands of dollars more than LoadStorm read one of these posts.
Here are test results from another large test today. There were 15,000 peak concurrent users that generated 1,300 requests per second. In the 1 hour performance test, a total of 66 gigabytes of data were transferred from the server in about 3 million requests. The peak throughput was about 33 kilobytes per second. Just thought I would share that with you.
