Connection Pooling for back end services over ssl

I have a set of backend services that I want to load test.

In real life they will be connected to via SSL from some front-end webapps, and so there will be a limited number of connections from each of the web apps.

I want to mimic this scenario as closely as possible.

What are the best configuration options to use?

I’ve set allowPoolingSslConnections = true

In the simulations do we also need to configure the http object to use “sharedConnections”?

I am currently testing with version 2.0.2, but hope to upgrade soon

Ssl connection pooling is enabled by default.
If your system only has a limited number of clients, yes, sharing the pool amongst virtual users would make sense. Then, it also depends on how you use those virtual users.

Thanks for your response.

So using shareConnections on the http object is advisable for my scenario.

What did you mean by "Then, it also depends on how you use those virtual
users."
