Show Maximum Concurrent TCP Connections #2

Open sciurus opened 3 years ago

sciurus commented 3 years ago

In addition to throughput, it would be interesting if this dataset included how many concurrent TCP connections you can establish to an instance. This limit kicks in if you have any security group rules that require connection tracking, and it varies per instance type.

You can read more about this limit at places like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18314138 and https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=231806

Thanks for the suggestion @sciurus.

I'd love to add that. Any suggestions for how to measure that?

sciurus commented 3 years ago

@oremj do you still have the client and server you wrote for testing this lying around?

oremj commented 3 years ago

I unfortunately don't. Let me know if any help is needed here though, fairly quick to write something that does this.

abatilo commented 3 years ago

Help would definitely be needed/appreciated. Any references for what to drop in as part of the test would be super handy!
