Users Per Engine Configuration

You can set the number of virtual users to initialize per engine before tests.

Let's take a look at the following example:

We want to run the tests with 1000 virtual users. With default settings, Loadium will start this test with 2 engines, 500 threads per engine. If you want to define a specific number of virtual users less than 500 per engine, click "Select Users Per Engine" button below.

Select Users Per Engine Button

Enable the "Select Users Per Engine" button. Enter the Users Per Engine value you want to initialize per engine in the Users Per Engine field.

50 users per engine, total 20 engines will be initialized

When To Use

If there is an IP-based rate limit or connection limit on the servers you test, you can reduce the number of initialized users per IP by using this feature.

Things To Pay Attention

If you are going to use a dedicated ip, make sure that the number of engines you set is not more than the number of dediceted ips in your account.
