httperf burst­length when using wsesslog

  • 772

I am trying to use httperf to stress test a server using the following syntax

    httperf --hog --client=0/1 --server myserver.com \
--wsesslog=2000,2,mysessions.cfg --max-piped-calls 5 --rate 150

this should create 2000 sessions at a rate of 150 req/s

mysessions.cfg contains

/path1/url think=2.0
/common/css/base.css
/images/image.png

..

My problem is I would like to specify a burst-lenght (concurrent calls inside session) greater than 2 but I always get

Maximum connect burst length: 2

the ­­burst­length=N is not usable with wsessionlog and I didn't see any way to specify it inside mysessions.cfg

Any insight?

testing

  1. I am no expert, but I thought that call-burst mimic the browser first request to select the HTML page then the objects imbedded in it, hence is two call-bursts. Are you thinking pipeline HTTP calls? those do increase the number of calls per connection
