That is not a very useful load test, since it doesn't match what you'll see in production. About half our requests are served from cache. Cache hits are all CPU, cache misses are heavy on IO. Testing with all cache misses will under-estimate CPU buy a huge amount.
It is very hard to simulate a real query load without using real queries. If you have a log of real queries, use that with JMeter. You can load a variable with a new query for each request with ${__StringFromFile(queries.txt)} http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/functions.html#__StringFromFile wunder On 12/14/07 1:59 AM, "Robert Young" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Is it possible to disable all the caches in Solr.
