Once the cluster is up and running we ran some tests with using the Apache Bench (ab) benchmarking tool which comes with Apache. Some of the tests performed are shown below. These tests only measure the maximum amount of requests the cluster can handle in an ideal situation. The diagram below shows the number of pages the cluster can server per second with different combinations of servers enabled and with different concurrent users.
The detailed output from the benchmark tests are shown below.
