Hello,

I want to make a load test to our application and we decided to use gattling. We want to test for 2000 user/sec. What are the minimum resources required for such test? ( Required bandwidth, processor , RAM etc…)  
Your help will be much appreciated.

Hello,

modern processor, latest JDK8, Linux, 8 cores or more  
bandwidth depends on your payloads, only you can tell.

Cheers,

Thank you for your quick response. We try to understand our system have enough capabilty to handle this test or do we need to hire temporary system for the test. I think we are going to stick with our system. Thanks again.
