RE: re Performance test...
No entity beans..not even using EJB on this particular test. It will be a few weeks before I get the clustered test posted. Business needs are consistently coming in and we don't have time to do much else. But as soon as I can I will post those results. > -Original Message- > From: Mark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2000 5:21 PM > To: Orion-Interest > Subject: re Performance test... > > > Kevin, quick question on your login test.

re Performance test...
Kevin, quick question on your login test. Does your application use EntityBeans to represent your users (and therefore are you calling EntityBean.ejbFind() to load from Oracle?). Or are you using another mechanism to represent users within your application? Many thanks for posting this info, it's extremely helpful! --Mark Hi all, Well, using a pretty nifty (and very expensive) testing tool, I was able to do some "minor" testing on a login process of our site. Using Orion, Oracle 8i database, and e-load test suite, here are some numbers that I got: 25 users - 15 connections in the pool pages per second - 43 pages per day - 3.75 million transactions per second - 14.5 transactions per day - 1.26 million 25 users - 30 connections in the pool pages per second- 26.4 pages per day - 2.28 million transactions per second - 8.81 transactions per day - 761333 25 users - 5 connections in the pool pages per second - 51.95 pages per day - 4.48 million transactions per second - 17.32 transactions per day- 1.49 million The test is simple. It uses the browser built into the e-test suite software and "automates" the login process of our site. I ran the test on a PIII650, with 512MB RAM. The database is running on a SUN E450 serve with 512MB RAM. The test simply sends a post submitted form with the login name and password to a controller servlet that then hits the database using a connection via the pool, and logs in the user. All logins were valid, I did not test invalid login names/passwords. Just thought I would share these numbers. Next week I will be setting up a two-server farm, using the load-balancer software that Orion includes in their download. Each server will be dual PIII550 with 512MB RAM and SCSI III RAID hd setup (Actually, they are IBM NetFinitiy 4000R units). The load balancer will run on a slow PII300 workstation with 128MB RAM (I hope this is good enough). They will be failed over and load-balanced, and I will test the performance on those and post the results here. The only thing I am not sure of is if different testing software performs about the same..or are there dramatically different results. If anyone wants me to attempt to test their site, I'll give it a go from here..but its over a T1 connection, where as my test is done locally on a LAN, so I am sure the results are more skewed.
RE: Performance test...
Not sure of the URL, but its RSW software. It costs us something like $35K for the software, including 7 licenses, so its definitely not cheap. But its a great web-based testing tool. A lot of people are used to Silk or QA Partner, but this one is extremely easy to use and learn. While it does allow for written script testing, it uses a sort of macro record mode to record every move you make in their internal browser. You can then set up a databank (a text file) that is used against a load-test, so that it simulates virtual users. I know we can simulat up to 100 virutal users with our licenses, which is small potatoes compared to some users of this tool. One of thier clients simulats 10,000 users. The software has "clients" that can be run on many computers over a network so you can run it over night, each computer simulating say 100 users, all hitting the same one site. Anyways..this is sort of off topic..but if you have any questions, feel free to email me. > -Original Message- > From: Santosh Kumar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2000 9:19 PM > To: Orion-Interest > Subject: Re: Performance test... > > > That was a simply great thing to do.

Re: Performance test...
That was a simply great thing to do. Where could i get hold of this tool.
