Hi all,

First of all, I'd like to provide some info about our program model:

1) Architechture: PDA -> webservice(Business webserver) --> SQL
Server(database server)
2) Everyday, size of transaction data is communicated around of 2
MBs
3) If there is upgrade version, the whole package of new version
about 3 MBs

We are trying to load test for about 1000 PDA concurrent users, thus
we have used several methods as below:
- Utilize Microsoft ACT tool to test webservice for 2000 users: OK
- In order to mimic the realistic business environment, we coded a
multithread ourself for testing of transaction data and upgrade
version. -> there are only maximum of 600 threads to run although we
configure for 1000 threads and run on 1, 2 or 3 PCs separately.

Therefore, our questions are:
- Is there any restriction for number of threads, or number of data
size transferred on webserver? ( I guess it is unlimited, it's only
depended on network bandwith, right?)
- What is the best solution for load test of data transfer from PDA to
server?

Very appreciated for any hints,
Thanks in advance

This is an IIS related question, post on its NG.
However, you can scale as you want.

test from pcs: from server point of view, it's the same
