Load Testing · Middle · Question 2 of 76
Why can a closed model hide a slowdown?
- 1Because the closed model always runs with caching turned off
- 2When the server slows, users send fewer requests, so load drops by itself
- 3Because closed models never record response times above one second
Show the answer
Correct answer: When the server slows, users send fewer requests, so load drops by itself
Explanation
With 100 VUs and a 1 s response you get ~100 RPS. If responses take 5 s, you get ~20 RPS. The system gets relief that real traffic would never give it.
