What happens with request that are not

Dear Loadui Community,

I am recently testing a REST Service with the fixed rate component.
If I put the parameters of the fixed rate component to 50 Threads per second, it is to much load for the Server the Service is running on, and it seems that it starts to answer not every request.
So if i send 50Threads per second over a time of 5 minutes, Loadui will send 15000 Threads right?
But because the Server is to busy, LoadUI records only around 11000 send Threads.

So I was wondering, what exactly happens to the 4000 missing threads?
Are they just lost?

If I would be a user, sending one of these 4000 threads, what would i get as reply? A connection timeout?

Thanks a lot for your help!

    Hi!

    This is how the Runner Components work:


    So my guess is that the additional 4000 requests got discarded.

    Hope this helps!
