How to load test a website on VPS?

redalertrox

So, I've got a custom website built on laravel. I would be deploying it on a VPS/Cloud with apache and DB on the same server.

I want to check its load on a VPS/Cloud Server with 20-25 concurrent users.

Basically I want to decide what specs of VPS I would be requiring if I create multiple installations of laravel (say 20 installations with 25 concurrent users each) on the same server?

Which is the best way/script/app to measure the load for one installation?

What specs would you suggest for 12500 Pageviews per day?

You just post the URL here.
We'll do the rest for you.

test it, no one can answer that question without more info.

for example test with

• 1 web server (1 GB RAM)
• 1 database (512 MB RAM)

you can go from these basic setup

Siege is a nice tool.

Haven't tried it out yet, but seems like a good tool and I've been eyeballing it for awhile.

What specs would a wordpress with 500-concurrent-users/hour require ? Since I think wordpress uses more RAM than laravel...

Is ab considered gauche now or something?

Depends what shitty plugins are installed.
