Running Gatling from a singel Windows 8 laptop

Gatling (Open-Source)
1

Hi,
Is it possible to create i.e. 60 users at once from a singel laptop running Windows 8, or do I need to put up a loadgenerator to get that much load with Gatling. I understand that Gatling's model (actor) makes it possible to create a lot of load from a singel PC.
Anyone done something similar from a laptop?
All experience is appreciated!

Load generation usually depends on capacity of a laptop. Having said that 60 users should not be a problem unless you computer is extremely slow.

Cool, do you know if Windows require tuning of the OS to perform optimal?
