Hi all,
I would like to share something that I'm experiencing at the moment and see if anyone else has experienced the same in the past and have an explanation for it, cause honestly I can't find one :D.
Here is my case:
I have the controller for LR 11.04 installed. Then I have 4 different injectors where the specifications goes from 4 Cores / 4Gb of Ram up to 8 Cores / 8GB of Ram. Hard drives are between 80Gb and 120Gb and in all of them there are over 60Gb of free space.
Around an average of 80 users is running in each injector. Well, what is happening is 3 of the injectors (including the localhost where the controller is executed) are at 100% CPU usage capacity during the whole execution of the test. Looking at the task manager, the processes taking the main use are mmdrv.exe (lr processes). The response times in the test are steady and there are no degradation in any of the transactions. Also the computers where the injectors are installing are working fine and responding quickly to every command executed on them. LR doesn't even show any message about "generator using over 80% CPU". All the scripts are executed as Threads.
As you could see, I don't have a crazy load.
Currently, it is not a big problem as, as I mentioned before, the performance of the test an application is within the rates expected, but I'm curious if someone can explain why is this happening and, if you can give me any solution I would really appreciate it!
Thanks a million in advance!
