Hi, I was trying to configure the web server benchmark on the machine that I am using as web-server. This machine is a 6-core (12 threads), 48 GB RAM Xeon Server. I am trying to configure the webserver to maximize the usage of memory being used by the PHP server.
I tried to configure the benchmark with a load of 100. It ran fine to completion (some the benchmark stats did not clear the threshold: Status failed). When I tried to increase the load to 500 users, it crashed giving these warnings. 22:46:09 sc-h03 WARNING exception UIDriverAgent[0].283.doHomePage: Too many open files 22:46:09 sc-h03 INFO I/O exception (java.net.SocketException) caught when processing request: Too many open files 22:46:09 sc-h03 INFO Retrying request I checked whether the server is overwhelmed or not. Server not even getting utilized that much. Nor its memory was getting utilized. I am not sure why is this crash occurring. The memory getting utilized by the backend machine using mysql is getting a little higher. Can anyone tell me how is the webserver benchmark utilize the three machine and which would be a bottleneck? It seems like the backend machine would be overwhelmed much before the frontend would get pressurized. Can anyone comment on that? Thanks, Jayneel
