I wanted to see how many requests can this server handle, so I have used loader.io and run10k requests for 15 seconds. But it seems 20% percent of request fail due to timeout, and the response time keep increasing. Source: 10 months ago
I ran on the same hardware 5k current get requests through https://loader.io/ tool to the server with each db. Source: about 1 year ago

We put 50 servers of puppets against 50 http servers and see who wins. Ever had 10,000 in your checkout line at once? loader.io is for posers. Also what if there's 250,000 wanting to join the checkout line. Well we can scale to the moon and not handle that. I recommend a waiting room like Queue It. Source: over 1 year ago

These days https://k6.io/ on command-line. It's open source and you can push the results into their cloud offering for visualization (I haven't tested that yet). https://loader.io/ has visualization included but the setup usually takes me more time, e.g. Generating 10.000 random queries (for a search engine). They have a limit (3 or 5 megabyte, can't remember) on the maximum payload size and I regularly hit the... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

Hi, I'm a web dev by trade and have used this,, https://loader.io/, to teat load balanced web applications in the past. I'm thinking this is better to keep separate from your homelab as WP is very prone to exploits. Keeping this on a separate server/network wouldn't probably be a bad idea, but not going to harp on you for giving it a shot 😁. One of our main tests using this tool was to see if one of our...

I'm with u/gamertan, you should develop some real world testing of your own since your use case is specific. You can use loader.io for this. Source: about 2 years ago
Are there any cons of loader.io for you? As far as I know, they are sending the load from one location. Don't you need to see the performance of your system across different locations? Source: about 2 years ago
If you're looking for a way to load test or stress test your setup, you can try it with k6, locust or Loader. Source: over 2 years ago
Https://loader.io is a nice tool for that. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
The true test of a server is concurrent users. Traffic over an hour doesn't test a server. You can run tests with something like https://loader.io/. Source: over 2 years ago
I did only loader.io, do you have more test I should run? Source: over 2 years ago

To test if the new system can scale, I used https://loader.io/ to try to figure out how much of a load that one VM can handle. What happens if it receives 100 requests per second? 400 requests per second? As it turns out, this one chonky VM can handle 100 requests per second, every second, for 30 seconds without a sweat:. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

Thank you! You are right - loader.io wasn't giving me enough to go on. The k6 tests showed that there was a 301 redirect occurring on every request. If I test example.com/about it would redirect to example.com/about/ with a trailing slash. The response times on the slashless urls would pile up to 15 000 ms and the CPU would peak out. When I test the same url with the trailing slash included, everything is fine.... Source: almost 3 years ago
Benchmark - best way to make sure you can handle the traffic is benchmark. There's lots of cloud-based tools (loader.io, loadview, k6), and clients you can use/host yourself (h2load, ab, wrk, siege). Try different concurrency settings, monitor your resource usage, figure out what's slowing you down. That's really what tuning is - trying, and figuring out what works and doesn't.
