Thanks for the reply, Sipathamandla! I know the meaning of ramp-up period and I know that I'm stressing a lot the system. I'm trying to understand why I have these delays. It seems that, when many threads come together, some of them suffer a delay that seems to be about 700 ms, then 1.5 s, 3 s and then 9 seconds.
