How many users can Gatling generate

I am running Gatling tests on aws instance with 4 core and 16GB memory. Is it sufficient to generate 50 users/sec ? What other configurations for the aws instance do I need to check?

Hello Deepak,

Thanks for joining the community. This is a very common question but is also an impossible question to answer given what you’ve supplied (current answer is probably :man_shrugging:). 50/Users Sec completing how many requests? What protocols? What type of requests?

With Gatling Enterprise though, you can see how much load you can generate using one injector or load generator.

Best,
Pete

All are API requests, http protocol. Mix of get and post request and 50 users will be completing 15 requests.
