Depending on whether the application requires many read/write queries, it may help to set the database connection pool to the number of processing cores. For read-only testing, all HP Proliant c-Class Blade Serv ers in the test can still handle almost the same number of transactions ev en though the number of concurrent threads is double the number of processing cores. Therefore, more database connections than the number of processing cores for read-only applications can be used. NO TE: For read
