      <title>Load Testing</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="text-indent:20pt;"&gt;
This week I get to load test our J2EE application with JMeter.  I'm running JBoss on my Dad's old powerbook -- G3 500MHz, 512 MB RAM.   I ran the tests with 100 concurrent users. Here's something you don't see all that often : 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
bosworth@rout:/usr/local/jboss/server/pws/log$ w
&lt;br /&gt;06:18:03 up 69 days, 21:14,  2 users,  load average: 73.64, 42.36, 23.98
&lt;br /&gt;USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
&lt;br /&gt;bosworth tty1     -                16Apr07 20:26   0.79s  0.65s -bash
&lt;br /&gt;bosworth pts/0    flee.lan         06:02    3.00s  0.65s  0.03s w
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
73.64!  Yikes!  No errors though....
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Update: Here's the results with 300 concurrent : 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
bosworth@rout:/usr/local/jboss/server/pws/log$ w
&lt;br /&gt; 06:53:09 up 69 days, 21:49,  2 users,  load average: 17.90, 99.05, 114.98
&lt;br /&gt;USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
&lt;br /&gt;bosworth tty1     -                16Apr07 21:01   0.79s  0.65s -bash
&lt;br /&gt;bosworth pts/0    flee.lan         06:02    1.00s  0.68s  0.03s w
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Still no errors!  Go little Mac, go!
&lt;/p&gt;
