Load Testing phoss-ap

[laithtawabini]

Hi, I was wondering if there are any recommendations for configurations / infrastructure to keep in mind / consider when load testing with heavy amounts of Incoming AS4 messages / invoices (looking at 300+ TPS).

What is the recommended approach to load testing. We are looking to load test using 2 instances with the same test certificate, one to send and one to receive + send back MLS (through API Call which handles MLS after forwarding and validation, phoss-ap default MLS sending is disabled), is this a valid approach? Also if any recommendations to track any errors and root causes.

FYI:

currently running on docker image phoss-ap:0.10.4
