 Before you do any tests suites, use CGP to determine that average number of webserver connections over a specific period of time (week, month, etc.). ​ Then use that average as the number of concurrent connections,​ to simulate the benchmark under normal conditions. Before you do any tests suites, use CGP to determine that average number of webserver connections over a specific period of time (week, month, etc.). ​ Then use that average as the number of concurrent connections,​ to simulate the benchmark under normal conditions.

-Using Ragnar and this system load as an example, 4.7 is the average # of connections over one hour (3600 seconds). [[http://​ragnarrelay.com/​cgp/​detail.php?​p=apache&​pi=localhost&​t=apache_connections&​h=ragnarrelay.com&​s=3600|reference]]

-Please note that this average is for all the traffic that the website generates -- not just one page. 
  
 Once you have the average number of connections,​ you can simulate the load under any length of time.  Fifteen seconds (one quarter of a minute) is a good number that is both realistic in simulation as well as wait time for the tester. Once you have the average number of connections,​ you can simulate the load under any length of time.  Fifteen seconds (one quarter of a minute) is a good number that is both realistic in simulation as well as wait time for the tester.
