#### Limitations
|
||||
There will be an upper bound of the supported `rate` which varies on the
|
||||
machine being used.
|
||||
You could be CPU bound (unlikely), memory bound (more likely) or
|
||||
have system resource limits being reached which ought to be tuned for
|
||||
the process execution. The important limits for us are file descriptors
|
||||
and processes. On a UNIX system you can get and set the current
|
||||
soft-limit values for a user.
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
$ ulimit -n # file descriptors
|
||||
2560
|
||||
$ ulimit -u # processes / threads
|
||||
709
|
||||
```
|
||||
Just pass a new number as the argument to change it.
|
||||
|
||||
## TODO
|
||||
* Add timeout options to the requests
|
||||
* Graphical reporters
|
||||
* Cluster mode
|
||||
* Cluster mode (to overcome single machine limits)
|
||||
* More tests
|
||||
* HTTPS
