Last time I had something on the reddit front page it topped out at about 10k simultaneous users and I was serving data at over 5Gbps. Never had another traffic source come within 50% of that
I have since moved from http to https, and I'm curious if I could withstand the same amount of traffic now. I think it's pretty hard to load test at that level.
do you have a cat?
I can't recall the number of simultaneous connections it provides, but you could try loader.io.
Thanks for the recommendation, I've tried it out and it seems great so far, especially for a free service
Remember when it was Slashdot? Those were the days.
