Conclusion

As shown in the above results, the EMQX on a 32C64G machine can support 100,000 concurrent connections and 100,000 messages with QoS 1 and payload of 200B per second persisted to Redis. All messages are written to the database in real time. During the traffic period, the CPU user stabilized at around 60%, and the average of CPU idle is 17%. Memory usage is stable. The average response time of connect and publish are at the level of millisecond.
