I'm running a stress test with Locust on:




  • c4.xlarge (attacker has c4.4xlarge)

  • 1 instance

  • amazonlinux 2017.03


I do simple HEAD and GET requests to a /status.html endpoint with the same distribution numbers 25000 users with 1000 spawned per second.
For the head requests I get a lot of these errors:
- 504, GATEWAY_TIMEOUT
- 408, REQUEST_TIMEOUT
- 503, Service unavailable: Back-end server is at capacity
The error rate is at about 10%.



But strangely for the GET request I get hardly any errors. It is not even 1%.



Why would that happen?



If you need more details about the setup I can provide it. Unfortunately I am very new to AWS so I do not know what to provide. Sorry!
