I've checked online resource and some people says I've got to have 10,000 users in my performance testing or I can't tell anything.
But some forum material claims 100 to 1,000 users will do the job.
How can that be.
Can you please explain?
Hey OfeliaL.
Thanks for asking.
It's simple to explain this.
It all has to do with the realism of the tests.
Most of the time those 10,000 user tests are doing HTTP/S protocol traffic generation. No client-side status and no induced secondary server activity.
Here is a detailed writeup of a load-test run we made that involved driving 1,000 "mobile device" users:

You can see for yourself in the chart that the performance starts to degrade at about 200 simultaneous users.
Hop that answers your question
