Who this is for

QA engineers, SREs, backend developers and performance engineers who need quick calculations for load, throughput, concurrency and capacity planning without setup overhead.

Examples

Typical scenario: 100 concurrent users, 2 requests per flow, 200 ms response time and 3 seconds think time. Estimated throughput is 62.5 Requests Per Second (RPS), around 3,750 requests per minute.

FAQ

What is RPS?

RPS stands for Requests Per Second. It is a throughput unit often used to estimate API and service load.

How do concurrent users relate to throughput?

Each user creates requests over a cycle that includes response time and think time. Throughput grows with users and requests per flow.

How do I estimate API capacity?

Start with latency and effective concurrent execution slots. Divide total concurrency by latency in seconds for a rough upper bound.

How do I size instances for expected traffic?

Divide expected RPS by per-instance capacity, then add safety margin and optional redundancy to get recommended instance count.

Can I use these tools for JMeter or k6 planning?

Yes. The simulator and scenario generator were designed to bootstrap JMeter and k6 test plans quickly.
