Load Testing · Senior · Question 41 of 76
Why sync clocks on distributed load generators?
- 1To make all generators send requests at exactly the same ms
- 2To align their time series with each other and with server metrics
- 3Because HTTP requests fail if clocks differ by a second
Show the answer
Correct answer: To align their time series with each other and with server metrics
