Hi Damar,

I'm glad that you liked the article.

Yeah I've simulated the tests with more than 50 requests per second.

In my experience, if you want to simulate a heavy load test to ensure the application works well, you should turn off services that are not necessary for testing. For example, if you're trying to test the login functionality, you should turn off the automatically sending welcome email to save the cost.

Also, if you're trying to ensure the application can scale out with the growing number of users, you can deploy the whole application in your local machine, then increase the load gradually. That way, you can see which component of your application is unable to scale and fix it.

Happy testing~~
