Peter, I presume you are speaking to the system under test. I believe the issue Elli is reporting is with JMeter. I have had this same problem with a test where JMeter failed after 25 iterations of a fairly complex script. Only by removing all the listeners was it capable of running to completion.
Scott -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: Out of memory error HTTPS is a tremendous CPU hog and will eat up plenty of RAM. In general, a 2ghz CPU will max out with 20 concurrent HTTPS requests. More than that, you're not really stressing the server. if you really need to test HTTPS, I would recommend keeping each client machine to 10 threads. Most of the sites that require heavy HTTPS use hardware accelerators. I personally don't recommend using software HTTPS if the expected HTTPS load is more than 10-15 concurrent. for example, a 450mhz P3 can reliably handle 3-5 concurrent requests. More than that the server will crash. this is primarily a hardware and IO limitation. peter lin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
