RE: Regarding the multi threading option in curl loader

[SAJAL B. <s.b...@qu...>]

Hi,

I have a couple of questions:

 1.  For a machine with one dual core Xeon processor and  4 GB of memory what is the theoretical maximum as the maximum number of clients (each with different IP address) ?
 2.  While running curl loader in the above mentioned environment (2 core processor and 4 GB of memory) why can the multi threading option be only be -t 2 or -t 4 ? Can I use something like -t 3 or -t 5 or something of this sort ?

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

I want to know if one thread of curl loader can use more than one CPU if its been run in a machine with multi core CPU ?


At a computer with N CPUs (or N-cores) run -t N or -t 2*N.

Fore more details read the FAQs, README and http://curl-loader.sourceforge.net/high-load-hw/index.html
