How to avoid login bottleneck.

Unregistered User Posts: 514 3/28/2021	Unregistered User Posts: 514 We were able to create testing scenarios, however we have some problems during initial logins from some computers used for test. Is it possible to delay login procedure not to cause “ļogin storm” from testing computer?

To do that, use the step load pattern https://support.stresstimulus.com/display/doc52/Step+Load For example, you can use the following settings: Start VU 1 Sep VU increase 1 step duration (s) 20 20 Max VU N This way, the login transaction for VUs will space out by 20 seconds.
