    This is a common question but also a tough one. We cannot provide an accurate answer to this because this questions has a lot of dependencies (How extensive are this scenarios, how big are the Request/Response, do they have attachments, etc). Instead we have a real easy way that you can figure this out by leveraging the easy to use functions that we provide. Please see instructions below:

     

    1. Set up an Agent on one of the remote environments.
    2. Set up a RAMP SEQUENCE load profile: http://readyapi.smartbear.com/loadui_ng/configure/profiles/rampseq
    3. Set Up the Peak VUs to the MAX that you want to ramp up to
    4. Set up a MONITOR so that you can monitor the machine that is generating the Load: http://readyapi.smartbear.com/loadui_ng/monitor/intro/basicconcepts
    5. Go into Statistics and set up a custom graph to show the resources on the machine where the load is being generated and the VUs and load that is being implemented: http://readyapi.smartbear.com/loadui_ng/monitor/intro/basicconcepts

     

    With this custom graph you will very easily start to see when your resources start to take a hit.

    Hello!

     

    We have recently made some calculation so that we can give you a  baseline to determine an estimate of how many machines you may need for x amount of concurrent runs. Please see the following link: http://readyapi.smartbear.com/loadui_ng/intro/sysreq 

     

    Hope this helps.
