Hi,
In the past I've used slamd to stress test various LDAP servers to
determine what the max throughput is that they could handle for
various operations or sets of operations. However, in reading the
jmeter docs, I'm not clear how one would replicate this type of testing.
Generally, in SLAMD, I could configure things to behave in the
following way:
1) Set up your distributed clients (as can be done with jmeter)
2) Configure the overall system so that each client starts out with
initially 1 thread executing your task, with W amount of warmup time,
and then a duration of X, with a cooldown of Y seconds afterward. Then
increment the thread count on each client, and do the same thing. You
do this until there is no performance increase for at least Z
iterations. Once that maximum is determined, re-run the best iteration
for a configured amount of time.
For example, here's the generated report for a stress test I ran
several years ago:
<https://mishikal.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/mdb_slamd_data_report.pdf>
In this case, I had 16 distributed clients. They would run each
iteration for 1200 seconds, with a 30 second delay between
iterations. They would start with 1 thread each, and no specified
maximum (since this is controlled by the improvement counter). There
was a warmup of 60 seconds before statistics would be gathered and the
iteration timer was started and a cooldown of 60 seconds at the end of
the iteration. Statistics are collected every 10 seconds.
Does anyone have pointers and/or documentation that would allow me to
set up a similar sort of stress test with jmeter as slamd was
abandoned several years ago?
I have to admit, that I didn't completely understood how you wanted to
accomplish with your setup.
With JMeter you can use ramp-up period out of the box, that will start
one thread after another over the specified duration. You can limit the
overall duration of the test by using the scheduler of the default
thread group.
If you need more you can look for JMeter plugins.
Have you had a look at the JMeter plugin
https://jmeter-plugins.org/wiki/ConcurrencyThreadGroup/?
For the reports have a look at the report generation
