How do i generate 1800 rps in locust, from one locustfile?

Question

I have a locustfile, which is for generating load for a certain target website. In my case i need to crate 1800 rps. but i am not able to generate that much in the single locustfile.

So i have created 4 locust file and generate 450 rps for each. but the rps not give as my expectation. It was dropped and became as very low.

You can run the same locustfile as master/worker setup where you start a worker for each core you have on your machine.

In every 5 min RPS value drops, my locust version is 0.7.5 – Dibas Das Jun 23 '20 at 11:12
Your version is about 4 years old. Start by upgrading. Next, check that the bottleneck is not your target: check the response times when the throughput drops (if they are increasing then congratulations: you have most likely found a bottleneck/problem in your target system :) – Cyberwiz Jun 24 '20 at 16:44

You might want to switch to a SaaS software in order to generare that many requests, such as https://rungutan.com
