The 100% CPU for "ab" indicates that "ab" was your bottleneck. AFAIK "ab" is single threaded async, so it can handle multiple parallel connections but will max out on one consumed CPU core. If you want to go further, you would have to start multiple "ab" in parallel. Since you are close to a CPU saturated system, in this specific case you might not get much further, but 17454 requests/sec isn't that bad either :) Regards, Rainer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
