SSE Connections

I'm trying to stress test my realtime connections and I'm hitting our server with 2500+ connections but I'm getting really poor latency and I'm curious if its because the server can only handle so many concurrent connections or if its an issue on my end.

I'm expecting 5000 - 10000 connections to the realtime listeners, so I want to ensure our system can handle it. Would love some pointers too, thanks!

Hello,

On our end, 5,000 to 10,000 connections would be no issue, as that would be a tiny fraction of traffic for any given time period relative to all other traffic.

There are only two issues you will run into. With that kind of traffic from a single IP, it would need to be distributed organically. Otherwise, we would soft-jail that level of traffic from a single IP, and you may encounter bottlenecks in your application and or configuration.

Otherwise, happy testing!

Best,
Brody

Thanks for the quick response! How do you suggest we test the bottleneck for our realtime then?

Since Railway would not be a factor with organic traffic, you can test your application locally.
