Hi gents,
I'm looking for people who use haproxy on an amazon server.
I'm more interested by the number of hit/s you could get.
Compared to our multi-tomcat-jboss-ultra-threaded-and-locked
application (that doesn't seem to like EC2 too much), Haproxy is running
like a charm up there.
As of hit/s, well, I've never managed to saturate haproxy before
saturating everything else in the chain, so I can't tell you.
My (limited) experience of EC2 showed me that the bottleneck are
essentially a limited number of CPU (although quite beefy and not
applicable to haproxy), the EBS storage (also not applicable) and, if
you're not in a VPC, the network.
If you have issues with the latest, try running in a VPC, it seems that
we are reaching between 1 and 1.5 gbps between instances in that env.
