Hi Baptiste. Yeah, I am not focusing much on the timeout values.
Current top performance that we have got from a m1.xlarge on amazon ec2 is: 2000 conns/s ~30k active connections (with good response time) 8000 req/s Using "taskset" to set haproxy on cpu 01 and then have stud on 00,02,03. That turned out to be the best setup during our loadtests. Using haproxy on cpu 00 resulted in a lot of load on the virtual layer (si%). Much better to have haproxy on cpu 01 and let stud use cpu 00 instead. /E -----Original Message----- From: Baptiste [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: den 1 november 2011 13:17 To: Erik Torlen Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Timeout values Hey Erik :) Once again, playing with the timeout below won't change anything. Try playing with server maxconn, some sysctls also has to be checked. What kind of performance can you get? Are you sure your bottleneck is your LB? cheers On Tue, Nov 1, 2011 at 7:33 PM, Erik Torlen <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm trying to see what difference the values does to my loadtest result.
