How to make mountebank use all the CPUs in a system for load testing

If mountebank is put in a production or staging server to load test the application, do we need to configure mb to use all the cpus of the system?

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • No, mountebank uses non blocking I/O rather than multiple threads. If you need to scale it beyond what one instance can handle, put multiple instances behind a load balancer sharing the same test data.
