I'm performing a testing on the performance of tomcat 4.0.4 against the
number of concurrent user. So I start from 1 request to call a servlet to do
a certain task and record the time elapsed. Then I start 2 requests at the
same time to call the same servlet and do the same task again and record the
time elapsed. I repeat the testing for 3, 4 requests and so on. It is found
that it takes "N" ms for 1 request to finish.; it takes slightly less than
"2N" ms to finish if there 2 requests; it takes slight less than "3N" ms to
finish for 3 requests; and so on.
My question is whether the result is reasonable. If not, how can I tune the
tomcat server to have a better performance?
Thanks
Tak
