On: How many HTTP requests/second can a single machine handle? (2024)

[BinaryIgor]

It's all described in the blog post and there is a link to the source code as well :)

Both the app and db are hosted on the same machine - they are sharing resources. This fact, type of storage and other details of the setup are contained in this section: https://binaryigor.com/how-many-http-requests-can-a-single-m...

I think you're right that I didn't mention the details of the db connection pool; they are here: https://github.com/BinaryIgor/code-examples/blob/master/sing...

Long story short, there's a Hikari Connection Pool with initial 10 connections, resizable to 20.

60000 is near the theoretical max of a 5 tupple with all but the client port being fixed. If you are going to test with this many connections per client you are hopefully using multiple IPs per client or multiple server IPs.
