I have never used any kind of stress tool in my web app. Right now it is in production under heavy load and some statistics are:
Authenticated users: 520 (this are the active sessions) Dynamic requests per second: 25 Average Max. Dynamic requests per second: 60 to 80 (these are peak values) When I say dynamic requests I mean just PHP scripts. Static content (js, css, images, etc) is not registered here but it is usually 3 to 4 times dynamic requests... so, do the math. ;-) For this app I'm using Apache 1.3, PHP 4.3 and Oracle 8.1.7 The server is an old compaq with RedHat Linux 9, 2 GB RAM and 4 proccessor with 550MHz each. I hope it can serve you as a reference.
