Spring 启动 REST API 服务器连接有时超时

Question

I'm testing my Spring Boot REST API server with Apache JMeter.

Most of 'Connect Time' is in 10ms, but connection timed out occurs sometime.

JMeter's settings

- Thread
Number of Threads : 500
Ramp-Up Period : 50

- HTTP Request
Connect timeout : 20000ms
Response timeout : 40000ms

- Constant timer
Thread delay : 1000ms

CentOS7 settings

open files                      (-n) 65535
max user processes              (-u) 65535

Java execution settings

-Xmx8g -Xms4g -Xmn2g -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:SurvivorRatio=16

Spring Boot application.properties Tomcat settings

server.tomcat.connection-timeout=20000
server.tomcat.max-connections=100000
server.tomcat.threads.max=10000
server.tomcat.threads.min-spare=2500
server.tomcat.accept-count=10000

JMeter works normally up to 10,000~20,000 requests, but connection timeout occurs after that.

Can you tell me why it happens?

Your response time increases above 20 seconds hence Tomcat rejects the connection (most probably the setting acts as the protection from slow HTTP attacks

either set it to -1 to disable it or use a profiler tool to see what is causing the problem on your application/tomcat end.

Also JMeter command-line output doesn't tell the full story, I would recommend generating some charts from the.jtl results file like Response Times Over Time , Active Threads Over Time , Transactions per Second , etc. so you could correlate various performance metrics. It's also a good idea to monitor server-side operating system health metrics like CPU, RAM, Network, Swap, Disk usage as well as JVM JMX metrics, it can be done using ie JMeter PerfMon Plugin
