This is a simplified estimate based on throughput and average response time.

What this calculator does

Estimates average concurrent users required to sustain a target request rate at a given response time.

Formula

L = λ × W
concurrency = rps * response_time_seconds

Little's Law approximation: concurrency (L) equals throughput (λ) times average time in system (W).

FAQ

Is this exact for production?

No. Use it as a planning baseline and validate with real load tests.
