Load Testing our Heroku app
- swatermasysk 16y agoIt is a very basic set of tests, but it does give you a rough idea on what may be possible to do with a dyno or two.
- danielharan 16y agoDid something similar recently, and adding dynos didn't help. Then I realized I was limited by my own bandwidth; both my co-founder and I could hammer heroku from our homes and still see the same maximum throughput individually. Our main take-away was that their caching layer was really effing fast.
- davcro 16y agoHeroku's dynos scale just fine. As long as you got the money you can keep adding dynos. However Heroku's database services do not scale as easily. I recommend using Amazon's RDS instead. RDS is F'n amazing. You can scale the db up or down and take snapshots without any downtime.
