Re: how much can it take
I was inspired to write an article about stress testing web servers
after I did some consulting for a client whose server fell over when put
into production after testing out flawlessly during development. This
was a consumer eCommerce site that was put online just in time for the
Christmas shopping season.
It seems they never tested the server under a production load.
