hi!
For few days I run performance tests on 4 (Intel's) processor box.
One of them is servlet running on Tomcat - this is just creating MD5
digest of some short text about 1000 times and some loop to glue these
digests with some HTML tags and no other activity.
I run tests with httperf or apachebench (ab).
Problem is, I cannot reach 100% of CPUs usage.
On top it seems, test take about 50-80% (it depends on concurrency rate).
When I run two Tomcats as separate processes, I could reach about 90%
(but still not 100%).
In opposite - when I run PHP script with near code (creating MD5 of the
same text, and loop with HTML pieces) on Apache - I reach 100% of CPUs
usage at about 80 req/s without any problems.
May be, I'm not aware of some conf issues, but I try to influence on
usage by changing number of allowed Tomcat's HttpProcessors - it seems,
that with increasing number of threads usage of machine decreases (of
course performance also)
And here few questions:
- anybody knows about complications with threads on SMP Intel based
machines with Tomcat (or JVM itself maybe)?
- or maybe I misconfigured something in Tomcat, what prevents me from
reaching 100% usage of system/CPUs
Best regards and thanks for any advices
