I have a Rails 3.1 application that I am trying to use JMeter to load test. Our site is targeted around collecting information so users sign-up and then walk through a question and answer workflow and after answering a few questions, they are rewarded with some useful information. My JMeter test is configured to walk through sign-up and then the full Q&A workflow.
Environment details: RedHat Enterprise 6 Rails 3.1 Ruby 1.9.2p290 DB: Postgres 9 I have run tests with 20 and 100 concurrent threads and a ramp-up time of 1 thread per second and the results are ok. However, as soon as I decrease the rampup time so there are multiple threads spawned in a second (even as little as 2 per second), about half of the signup calls fail with an error 422. Once that happens, for those same threads, the Q&A workflow breaks because we are assuming that there is a valid user answering questions. I'm trying to figure out if there is a problem with the application code, server configuration, or JMeter setup. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to troubleshoot this further would be greatly appreciated.
