Check the Processor load

What to do

Before the test

Check with the "Loadviewer" that the processor load is approximately 70%.

During the test

Check with the "Loadviewer" that the processor load is reasonable.

After the test

Check with the "Loadviewer" that the processor load is back to the same level it was before the test.

Note

When doing measurements and performance tests use the traffic levels mentioned in the test case be instead.

Information

When doing a test case it is a good idea to have some traffic going on to simulate a live system. How much the load shall be can be discussed forever, but we have decided to have the load on approximately 60 to 70%.

The traffic is generated with the Demo2000 application. Use the following setting to reach the right load:

Ziatech processors, Pentium with 512 Mbyte memory (Nora)

Update(%) 45 Read(%) 45
Create/Delete(%) 10 Intensity (per processor) 175 (C++), 110 (Java)
Print Intervall 60 Size of Object 500
Ranging (per processor) 50000    


Teknor processors, Pentium III with 768 Mbyte memory (Carmencita)

Update(%) 45 Read(%) 45
Create/Delete(%) 10 Intensity (per processor) XXX (C++), XXX (Java)
Print Intervall 60 Size of Object 500
Ranging (per processor) 200000    


Teknor processors, Pentium III with 1 Gbyte memory (Osiris)

Update(%) 45 Read(%) 45
Create/Delete(%) 10 Intensity (per processor) 500 (C++), 375 (Java)
Print Intervall 60 Size of Object 500
Ranging (per processor) 250000
